Figure 1
Predicted domain structures of putative adhesins from Actinomyces family bacteria implicated in bacterial vaginosis. Ester-bond-containing domains are coloured blue and isopeptide domains green. N-terminal adhesin (A) and C-terminal LPxTG cell-anchoring (anchor graphic) locations are indicated. Domains are numbered from 1 starting at each respective adhesin domain. The M. mulieris and M. curtisii domain structures and protein sequences match, except for large isopeptide-domain insertions (underlined in M. mulieris with a bold red line). The two-domain gene construct encoding repeat domains 46 and 47 was cloned and expressed, and the crystal structure of the purified protein was determined. |
