The PapC N-terminal domain is a structural domain found at the N-terminus of the E. coli PapC protein. Pili are assembled using the chaperone usher system. In E.coli this is composed of the chaperone PapD and the usher PapC. This domain represents the N-terminal domain from PapC and its homologues. This domain is involved in substrate binding [1].
PapG, the adhesin of the P-pili, is situated at the tip and is only a minor component of the whole pilus structure. A two-domain structure has been postulated for PapG; a carbohydrate binding N-terminus (this domain) and chaperone binding C-terminus ...
PapG, the adhesin of the P-pili, is situated at the tip and is only a minor component of the whole pilus structure. A two-domain structure has been postulated for PapG; a carbohydrate binding N-terminus (this domain) and chaperone binding C-terminus. The carbohydrate-binding domain interacts with the receptor glycan [1,2].

PapG, the adhesin of the P-pili, is situated at the tip and is only a minor component of the whole pilus structure. A two-domain structure has been postulated for PapG; a carbohydrate binding N-terminus and chaperone binding C-terminus (this domain). The chaperone-binding domain is highly conserved, and is essential for the correct assembly of the pili structure when aided by the chaperone molecule PapD [1,2].
