Figure 8: Subtype-specific assembly of the T3SS sorting platform by SPOA1,2–APAR interactions.
From: A common assembly module in injectisome and flagellar type III secretion sorting platforms
Schematic illustration of the proposed role for the SPOA1,2–APAR assembly in organizing and localizing the T3SS sorting platforms in a subtype-specific fashion. IM indicates the inner membrane; ONT, the SpaO amino-terminal domain(s); 1 and 2, SpaO SPOA1 and SPOA2; B, OrgB; H, FliH; MNT, the FliM amino-terminal domains; M and N, the SPOA domains of FliM and FliN; injectisome, the membrane integral components of the pathogenic T3SS; flagellar BB, the flagellar basal body and associated integral membrane components.
