Functional analysis of an unusual type IV pilus in the Gram‐positive Streptococcus sanguinis

Type IV pili (Tfp), which have been studied extensively in a few Gram‐negative species, are the paradigm of a group of widespread and functionally versatile nano‐machines. Here, we performed the most detailed molecular characterisation of Tfp in a Gram‐positive bacterium. We demonstrate that the nat...
