Spontaneous non-canonical assembly of CcmK hexameric components from β-carboxysome shells of cyanobacteria.

Spontaneous non-canonical assembly of CcmK hexameric components from β-carboxysome shells of cyanobacteria.

CcmK proteins are major constituents of icosahedral shells of β-carboxysomes, a bacterial microcompartment that plays a key role for CO2 fixation in nature. Supported by the characterization of bidimensional (2D) layers of packed CcmK hexamers in crystal and electron microscopy structures, CcmK are...
