Show abstract
FapA is an accessory protein within the biofilm forming functional bacterial amyloid related fap-operon in Pseudomonas. We present a complete sequential assignment of 1Hamide, 13C, 13C{beta}, and 15N NMR resonances for the functional form of the monomeric soluble FapA protein, comprising amino acids between 29-152. From these observed chemical shifts, the secondary structure propensities (SSPs) were determined. FapA predominantly adopts a random coil conformation, however, we also identified small propensities for -helical and {beta}-sheet conformations. Notably, these observed SSPs are smaller compared to the ones we recently observed for the monomeric soluble FapC protein. These NMR results will provide valuable insights into the activity of FapA in functional amyloid formation and regulation, that will also aid developing strategies targeting amyloid formation within biofilms and addressing chronic infections.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
