a Models for two adjacent Pdu MCP shell facets in the S. Typhimurium LT2-WT and LT2-ΔpduA. Note that the model construction is based on the number of shell proteins from the absolute quantification data, and the relative geometric arrangement remains speculative. PduM is not shown here because of its unknown structure and uncertain role. b Model for the organisation of catalytic proteins. PduCDEGHLOPQV function as components of the Pdu MCP, whereas our confocal data suggest that PduW and PduX are not integrated into the Pdu MCP structure.
