Symmetry-free refinement improved the overall resolution map to 3.1 A and revealed differences in density among archaellin subunits. Nonetheless, we were unable to identify features that would allow us to unambiguously assign specific archaellins into the density, perhaps because the regions that distinguish each archaellin are few, short, and mostly predicted to lack defined secondary structure, or because the five archaellins are not organized in a repeating pattern. Consequently, we built a model into the central region of the cryo-EM map comprising 26 archaellin subunits that share a consensus sequence, in which identical residues among the five archaellins are explicitly modelled, with those variable residues usually being modelled as alanine residues (UNK). 由来: (天然) Halobacterium salinarum (好塩性)
