Exploring Proteins Containing Amyloidogenic Regions in the Proteomes of Bacteria of the Order
Amyloids are protein fibrils with a highly ordered spatial structure called cross-β. To date, amyloids were shown to be implicated in a wide range of biological processes, both pathogenic and functional. In bacteria, functional amyloids are involved in forming biofilms, storing toxins, overcoming th...
