Hierarchical organization and assembly of the archaeal cell sheath from an amyloid-like protein
Abstract Certain archaeal cells possess external proteinaceous sheath, whose structure and organization are both unknown. By cellular cryogenic electron tomography (cryoET), here we have determined sheath organization of the prototypical archaeon, Methanospirillum hungatei. Fitting of Alphafold-pred...
