Flagellin lysine methyltransferase FliB catalyzes a [4Fe-4S] mediated methyl transfer reaction

The methyltransferase FliB posttranslationally modifies surface-exposed ɛ-N-lysine residues of flagellin, the protomer of the flagellar filament in Salmonella enterica (S. enterica). Flagellin methylation, reported originally in 1959, was recently shown to enhance host cell adhesion and invasion by...
