Analysis of the heterogenous structural states of the hexameric ATPase PilU of the Type IV pili from Vibrio cholerae

Yirui Guo, Shantanu P. Shukla, G. Minasov…·K.J.F. Satchell

The paper determines six structural states of PilU, a retraction ATPase, revealing its homohexameric assembly and conformational flexibility, which may explain its weak ATPase activity and dependence on PilT.
