Integrin-like adhesin CglD confers traction and stabilizes bacterial focal adhesions involved in myxobacterial gliding motility

N. Y. Jolivet, E. Han, A. M. Belgrave, F. Saïdi, N. Koushki, D. J. Lemon, L. M. Faure, B. Fleuchot, U. Mahanta, H. Jiang, G. Sharma, J.-B. Fiche, B. P. Bratton, M. Diallo, B. Nan, , S. T. Islam

The paper identifies CglD as a β-integrin-like adhesin in Myxococcus xanthus that stabilizes bacterial focal adhesions and enables gliding motility through mechanosensory and mechanotransductory functions.

Bacterial outer-membrane polysaccharide export (OPX) proteins occupy three structural classes with selective β-barrel porin requirements for polymer secretion

F. Saïdi, U. Mahanta, A. Panda, N. Y. Jolivet, R. Bitazar, G. John, M. Martinez, A. Mellouk, C. Calmettes, Y.-W. Chang, G. Sharma, S. T. Islam

The paper identifies three structural classes of bacterial OPX proteins and shows that some use β-barrel porins for polysaccharide secretion when they cannot span the outer membrane.
