Structure of the E. coli chaperone PAPD in complex with the pilin domain of the PapGII adhesinStructure of the E. coli chaperone PAPD in complex with the pilin domain of the PapGII adhesin
FunctionFunction
[PAPD_ECOLX] Binds and caps interactive surfaces on pilus subunits to prevent them from participating in non-productive interactions. Facilitates the import of subunits into the periplasm. May facilitate subunit folding. Chaperone-subunit complexes are then targeted to the PapC outer membrane usher where the chaperone must uncap from the subunits.
