S-layer (Glyco)protein lattices: Biophysical principles of antifouling at prokaryotic interfaces
Abstract Surface layer (S-layer) lattices, composed of proteins and glycoproteins, constitute one of the most abundant and conserved supramolecular structures in the prokaryotic world. These self-assembling, two-dimensional arrays represent a major evolutionary investment, often accounting for up to 10% of total cellul...
