An invariant C-terminal tryptophan in McdB mediates its interaction and positioning function with carboxysomes

J. L. Basalla, M. Ghalmi, Y. Hoang, R. Dow, A. G. Vecchiarelli

The paper identifies an invariant tryptophan in McdB that mediates its interaction with carboxysomes and influences their positioning, showing similar mechanisms in both α- and β-carboxysomes.

Cell Surface-localized CsgF Condensate is a Gatekeeper in Bacterial Curli Subunit Secretion

H. M. Swasthi, J. L. Basalla, C. E. Dudley, A. G. Vecchiarelli, M. R. Chapman

This study shows that CsgF undergoes phase separation and regulates curli subunit secretion by forming condensates that template CsgA amyloid formation on the cell surface.

Dissecting the phase separation and oligomerization activities of the carboxysome positioning protein McdB

J. L. Basalla, C. A. Mak, J. Byrne, M. Ghalmi, Y. Hoang, A. G. Vecchiarelli

This study investigates the structural and functional properties of McdB, a protein involved in carboxysome positioning, revealing its role in phase separation and oligomerization.

The McdAB system positions α-carboxysomes in proteobacteria

J. S. MacCready, L. Tran, J. L. Basalla, P. Hakim, A. G. Vecchiarelli

The paper shows that the McdAB system positions α-carboxysomes in proteobacteria, distinct from its role in cyanobacteria, and suggests horizontal transfer of the system from proteobacteria to cyanobacteria.

The McdAB Carboxysome Positioning System is Widespread Among β-cyanobacteria

J. S. MacCready, J. L. Basalla, A. G. Vecchiarelli

The paper identifies the McdAB system as widespread in β-cyanobacteria, absent in α-cyanobacteria, and shows that McdB undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation.
