摘要

We report the 1.9 Å resolution crystal structure of enteropathogenicnEscherichia coli GfcC, a periplasmic protein encoded by the gfc operon, which is essentialnfor assembly of group 4 polysaccharide capsule (O-antigen capsule). Presumed genenorthologs of gfcC are present in capsule-encoding regions of at least 29 genera of Gram-nnegative bacteria. GfcC, a member of the DUF1017 family, is comprised of tandem β-graspn(ubiquitin-like) domains (D2 and D3) and a carboxyl-terminal amphipathic helix, a domainnarrangement reminiscent of that of Wza that forms an exit pore for group 1 capsule export.nUnlike themembrane-spanning C-terminal helix fromWza, the GfcC C-terminal helix packsnagainst D3. Previously unobserved in a β-grasp domain structure is a 48-residue helicalnhairpin insert inD2 that binds to D3, constraining its position and sequestering the carboxyl-nterminal amphipathic helix. A centrally located and invariant Arg115 not only is essential for proper localization but also forms one ofntwo mostly conserved pockets. Finally, we draw analogies between a GfcC protein fused to an outer membrane β-barrel pore innsome species and fusion proteins necessary for secreting biofilm-forming exopolysaccharides.
