Curli are functional amyloid fibers assembled by enteric bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. In E. coli, the polymerization of the major curli fiber subunit protein CsgA into an amyloid fiber depends on the minor curli subunit protein, CsgB. The outer membrane-localized CsgB protein shares [almost equal to]30% sequence identity wi...
