| Short Name | Low_molc_weight_S-layer_N_sub |
| description | Clostridial species have a layer of surface proteins surrounding their membrane. This layer is comprised of a high molecular weight protein and a low molecular weight protein.This superfamily represents a subdomain of the N-terminal domain of the Low molecular weight S layer protein (LMW SLP). Structurally, it consists of 2 alpha helices and 5 beta strands and adopts a 2-layer sandwich architecture. Within this domain, one of the beta strands is composed of C-terminal residues, while the rest of the protein is contributed to by a contiguous polypeptide chain at the N terminus []. |
