- W4385623048 abstract "Abstract Type IV pili (T4P) represent one of the most common varieties of surface appendages in archaea. These filaments, assembled from relatively small pilin proteins, can be many microns long and serve diverse functions, including adhesion, biofilm formation, motility, and intercellular communication. Using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we determined atomic structures of two dramatically different T4P from Saccharolobus islandicus REY15A. Unexpectedly, both pili were assembled from the same pilin protein but under different growth conditions. One filament, denoted mono-pilus, conforms to canonical archaeal T4P structures where all subunits are equivalent, whereas in the other filament, the tri-pilus, the same protein exists in three different conformations. The three conformations involve different orientations of the outer immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains, mediated by a very flexible linker, and all three of these conformations are very different from the single conformation found in the mono-pilus. Remarkably, the outer domains rotate nearly 180° between the mono- and tri-pilus conformations, formally similar to what has been shown for outer domains in bacterial flagellar filaments, despite lack of homology between bacterial flagella and archaeal T4P. Interestingly, both forms of pili require the same ATPase and TadC-like membrane pore for assembly, indicating that the same secretion system can produce structurally very different filaments. However, the expression of the ATPase and TadC genes was significantly different under the conditions yielding mono- and tri-pili. While archaeal T4P are homologs of archaeal flagellar filaments, our results show that in contrast to the rigid supercoil that the flagellar filaments must adopt to serve as helical propellers, archaeal T4P are likely to have fewer constraints on their structure and enjoy more internal degrees of freedom." @default.
