The chaplins: a family of hydrophobic cell-surface proteins involved in aerial mycelium formation in Streptomyces coelicolor
Open accessAbstract
The filamentous bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor differentiates by forming specialized, spore-bearing aerial hyphae that grow into the air. Using microarrays, we identified genes that are down-regulated in a mutant unable to erect aerial hyphae. Through this route, we identified a previously unknown layer of aerial mycelium surface proteins (the “chaplins”). The chaplins share a hydrophobic domain of ∼40 residues (the “chaplin domain”), and all have a secretion signal. The five short chaplins (ChpD,E,F,G,H) have one chaplin domain, whereas the three long chaplins (ChpA,B,C) have two chaplin domains and a C-terminal “sorting signal” that targets them for covalent attachment to the cell wall by sortase enzyme. Expression of the two chaplin genes examined ( chpE, chpH ) depended on aerial hyphae formation but not sporulation, and egfp fusions showed their expression localized to aerial structures. Mass spectrometry of cell wall extracts confirmed that the short chaplins localized to the cell surface. Deletion of chaplin genes caused severe delays in aerial hyphae formation, a phenotype rescued by exogenous application of chaplin proteins. These observations implicate the chaplins in aerial mycelium formation, and suggest that coating of the envelope by the chaplins is required for aerial hyphae to grow out of the aqueous environment of the substrate mycelium into the air.

Two groups identified a set of six genes encoding proteins likely involved in aerial hyphae formation, named chaplins.
“Recently, two groups have identified a set of six genes encoding proteins that are likely involved in aerial hyphae formation and which were named chaplins [66,67].”
From Protein sorting to the cell wall envelope of Gram-positive bacteria (2004) · cites this paper as [67]
The Identification section names the chaplin genes chpA–H, and the A model of chaplin assembly and function section explicitly says the family has eight members, not six. The paper does support their involvement in aerial mycelium formation and refers to an accompanying manuscript by another group. (LLM, conf=0.89)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAll chaplins are synthesized as precursors with an N-terminal leader sequence and a short hydrophobic domain (chaplin domain) of about 40 residues.

From Protein sorting to the cell wall envelope of Gram-positive bacteria (2004) · cites this paper as [67]
The Identification section (page unavailable) describes a very hydrophobic chaplin domain shared by the family and refers to cleavage of a leader peptide in the long chaplins. The SapB section (page unavailable) also refers to signal peptides in the eight chaplins. The body passages do not establish the claimed domain length of about 40 residues. (LLM, conf=0.83)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDeletion of six chaplin genes (chpA-H) hindered the formation of aerial hyphae; the defect could be complemented by the addition of exogenous chaplin proteins.

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.
