High-resolution mapping of metal ions reveals principles of surface layer assembly in Caulobacter crescentus cells
Surface layers (S-layers) are proteinaceous crystalline coats that constitute the outermost component of most prokaryotic cell envelopes. In this study, we have investigated the role of metal ions in the formation of the Caulobacter crescentus S-layer using high-resolution structural and cell biolog...
