Architecture of the Cellulose Synthase Outer Membrane Channel and Its Association with the Periplasmic TPR Domain.

The BcsC structural paper defines the cellulose outer-membrane porin as a beta-barrel preceded by a long TPR domain.

"The BcsC porin is a 1157 residues long protein containing two predicted domains: an N-terminal domain with 19 TPRs, and a C-terminal pore-forming β-barrel"

Insights into phosphoethanolamine cellulose synthesis and secretion across the Gram-negative cell envelope.

Cryo-EM evidence shows how BcsB and BcsC form the trans-envelope cellulose secretion path.

"BcsC interacts with the terminal BcsB subunit of the semicircle to establish an envelope-spanning complex."

Cell-cell and cell-surface interactions mediated by cellulose and a novel exopolysaccharide contribute to Pseudomonas putida biofilm formation and fitness under water-limiting conditions.

P. putida-specific physiology links cellulose to biofilm formation, water-stress fitness, and rhizosphere colonization.

"formation and stability, although it does contribute to rhizosphere colonization"

OpenScientist gene research for PP_2638

OpenScientist identifies PP_2638/Q88JL1 as the BcsC outer-membrane cellulose secretion porin by domain architecture, operon context, and full-length similarity to characterized BcsC orthologs.

"PP_2638 is BcsC, the outer-membrane cellulose secretion porin."
