What's a GeneRIF?
  1. Structural analysis, multiangle light scattering coupled with size exclusion chromatography, and bacterial two-hybrid data revealed that PilM forms dimers mediated by the binding of a novel conserved motif in the N terminus of PilM, and binding PilN abrogates this binding interface, resulting in PilM monomerization.
    Title: PilN Binding Modulates the Structure and Binding Partners of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Type IVa Pilus Protein PilM.
  2. PilP interacts with the N0 segment of PilQ via its C-terminal domain, and that the N-terminal cytoplasmic tail of PilN binds to the actin-like protein PilM, connecting all cellular compartments via the PilMNOPQ protein interaction network.
    Title: PilMNOPQ from the Pseudomonas aeruginosa type IV pilus system form a transenvelope protein interaction network that interacts with PilA.
