PilW family protein

PilW is a family of putative type IV pilus-assembly proteins. PilW is one of the component proteins of the pilus biogenesis process whereby pilus fibres are assembled in the periplasm, emerge onto the cell surface and are there stabilised, to allow bacterial attachment to host cells. PilW is an outer-membrane protein necessary for both the functionality of fibres and their stabilisation [1]. [1]. 15612916. Type IV pilus biogenesis in Neisseria meningitidis: PilW is involved in a step occurring after pilus assembly, essential for fibre stability and function.

prepilin-type N-terminal cleavage/methylation domain-containing protein

This short motif directs methylation of the conserved phenylalanine residue. It is most often found at the N-terminus of pilins and other proteins involved in secretion, see Pfam:PF00114, Pfam:PF05946, Pfam:PF02501 and Pfam:PF07596. (from Pfam)
