Visualizing dynamic competence pili and DNA capture throughout the long axis of Bacillus subtilis

J. D. Zuke, R. Erickson, K. R. Hummels, B. M. Burton

This paper visualizes competence pili in Bacillus subtilis using fluorescence microscopy, showing they are retractile, DNA-binding structures distributed along the cell's long axis.

A bifunctional ATPase drives tad pilus extension and retraction

C. K. Ellison, J. Kan, J. L. Chlebek, K. R. Hummels, G. Panis, P. H. Viollier, N. Biais, A. B. Dalia, Y. Brun

This study identifies a bifunctional ATPase, CpaF, that drives both extension and retraction of tad pili in Caulobacter crescentus through ATP hydrolysis.
