Abstract

The autotransporter family of translocated proteins in Gram-negative bacteria all contain three structural motifs, a signal sequence, a passenger domain and a translocator domain. The autotransporters constitute a highly versatile group of proteins with respect to function, which accords with the widespread presence of these proteins. The group encompasses many important virulence factors. In Escherichia coli, a subgroup of autotransporter proteins consists of the TibA adhesin/invasin associated with some enterotoxigenic E. coli, the AIDA adhesin from diarrhea-causing E. coli and finally, the Ag43 autoaggregation factor found in the majority of E. coli strains. The three proteins exhibit approximately 25% identity at the sequence level, and are quite different with respect to size, glycosylation and processing. Nevertheless, they share some important properties: all are self-associating proteins that cause bacterial aggregation. They can also interact with each other via heterologous interactions to cause formation of mixed bacterial aggregates. Furthermore, these proteins enhance biofilm formation. Based on these properties we propose to classify them together in a group termed SAATs: self-associating autotransporters.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
