The solution and crystal structures of a module pair from the Staphylococcus aureus-binding site of human fibronectin--a tale with a twist.
An important goal of structural studies of modular proteins is to determine the inter-module orientation, which often influences biological function. The N-terminal domain of human fibronectin (Fn) is composed of a string of five type 1 modules (F1). Despite their small size, to date F1 modules have...
