Abstract

Secretin proteins form pores in the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria, and as such provide a means of transporting a wide variety of molecules out of or in to the cell. They are important components of several different bacterial secretion systems, surface filament assembly machineries, and virus assembly complexes. Despite accommodating a diverse assortment of molecules, including virulence factors, folded proteins, and whole viruses, the secretin family of proteins is highly conserved, particularly in their membrane-embedded β-barrel domain. We describe here a protocol for the expression, purification and cryo-EM structural determination of the pIV secretin from the Ff family of filamentous bacteriophages.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 March 2024.
All research outputs
#17,364,523
of 25,482,409 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#6,035
of 14,220 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#179,699
of 339,961 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#114
of 275 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,482,409 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,220 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 339,961 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 275 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
