Wielert I, Kraus-Romer S, Volkmann T, Craig L, Higgins P, Maier B
PLoS Biol . 2025 Jan; 23(1):e3003022. PMID: 39883727
Type 4 pili (T4P) are multifunctional filaments involved in adhesion, surface motility, biofilm formation, and horizontal gene transfer. These extracellular polymers are surface-exposed and, therefore, act as antigens. The human...

Sonani R, Sanchez J, Baumgardt J, Kundra S, Wright E, Craig L, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2023 Nov; 120(49):e2316668120. PMID: 38011558
Type IV pili (T4P) are ubiquitous in both bacteria and archaea. They are polymers of the major pilin protein, which has an extended and protruding N-terminal helix, α1, and a...

Nguyen M, Wu T, Danielson K, Khan N, Zhang J, Craig L
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2023 Apr; 120(16):e2212664120. PMID: 37040409
Many bacteria possess dynamic filaments called Type IV pili (T4P) that perform diverse functions in colonization and dissemination, including host cell adhesion, DNA uptake, and secretion of protein substrates-exoproteins-from the...

Wang F, Craig L, Liu X, Rensing C, Egelman E
Trends Microbiol . 2022 Nov; 31(4):384-392. PMID: 36446702
A dynamic field of study has emerged involving long-range electron transport by extracellular filaments in anaerobic bacteria, with Geobacter sulfurreducens being used as a model system. The interest in this...

Chlebek J, Denise R, Craig L, Dalia A
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2021 Nov; 118(47). PMID: 34789573
Type IV pili (T4P) are dynamic surface appendages that promote virulence, biofilm formation, horizontal gene transfer, and motility in diverse bacterial species. Pilus dynamic activity is best characterized in T4P...

Barnier J, Meyer J, Kolappan S, Bouzinba-Segard H, Gesbert G, Jamet A, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2021 Nov; 118(45). PMID: 34725157
utilizes type IV pili (T4P) to adhere to and colonize host endothelial cells, a process at the heart of meningococcal invasive diseases leading to meningitis and sepsis. T4P are polymers...

Craig L, Altindal T
Methods Mol Biol . 2019 May; 1997:97-110. PMID: 31119620
The Type IV pili are displayed peritrichously on the surfaces of Neisseria gonorrhoeae cells. Here we present protocols for isolating and purifying Type IV pili and dissociating them into PilE...
