The small GTPase MglA together with the TPR domain protein SgmX stimulates type IV pili formation in M. xanthus

Bacteria can move across surfaces using type IV pili (T4P), which undergo cycles of extension, adhesion, and retraction. The T4P localization pattern varies between species; however, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. In the rod-shaped Myxococcus xanthus cells, T4P localize at the leadin...
