RapD Is a Multimeric Calcium-Binding Protein That Interacts With the Rhizobium leguminosarum Biofilm Exopolysaccharide, Influencing the Polymer Lengths

Rhizobium leguminosarum synthesizes an acidic polysaccharide mostly secreted to the extracellular medium, known as exopolysaccharide (EPS) and partially retained on the bacterial surface as a capsular polysaccharide (CPS). Rap proteins, extracellular protein substrates of the PrsDE type I secretion...
