The structure of a 15-stranded actin-like filament from Clostridium botulinum
The plasmid-segregating actin-like protein ParM is encoded on the large, toxin carrying plasmid pCBH from Clostridium botulinum. Here the authors present the cryo-EM structure of the ParM filament that is formed from the association of 15 protofilaments and discuss its architecture.
