Cryo-electron tomography reveals the binding and release states of the major adhesion complex from Mycoplasma genitalium.
The nap particle is an immunogenic surface adhesion complex from Mycoplasma genitalium. It is essential for motility and responsible for binding sialylated oligosaccharides on the surface of the host cell. The nap particle is composed of two P140-P110 heterodimers, the structure of which was recentl...
