Characterizing the Roles of PilF and PilQ in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Type IV Pilus Biogenesis

Type IV pili (T4P) are bacterial biomolecular machines that mediate interactions with the environment. Bacterial pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa require T4P for virulence. Significant progress has been made in recent years towards our understanding of how the proteins in the T4P system in...
