CAVEAT: The homology model described here was published in 2015. In 2019, [[cryo-EM]] structures of highly conductive ''Geobacter'' nanowires were found to be composed of the cytochrome OmcS<ref name="wang-gu">PMID:30951668</ref><ref name="filman">PMID:31925024</ref>. This called into question whether highly conductive pilus nanowires composed of the protein pilA exist. | |||

Two pilin monomer models (<scene name='59/595215/2_gs_pilin_models/2'>restore initial scene</scene>) were utilized. First, we made a homology model templated on the X-ray crystallographic structure of the pilin of ''Pseudomonas aeruginosa''<ref>A ''Geobacter sulfurreducens'' pilin (pilA) homology model was constructed by Swiss-Model, templated on the X-ray crystallographic structure of ''Pseudomonas aeruginosa'' pilin ([[1oqw]], chain A).
