Sequence length 382 AA
Subcellular LocationSurface
Function It is the major glycoprotein of exosporium and also the immunodominant protein of the spore surface. Exosporium is a loose fitting layer enclosing the spore. BclA forms the filaments of the external hair-like nap of the exosporium.
Protein Structure
PDB ID 2R6Q
Glycosylation Status
Technique(s) used for Glycosylation DetectionECL Glycoprotein detection kit and chemical deglycosylation using trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TFMS).
Glycan Information
Glycan Annotation The protein is extensively O-glycosylated with a 715-Da tetrasaccharide and a 324-Da disaccharide. The tetrasaccharide contains three rhamnose residues and an unusual terminal sugar, 2-O-methyl-4- (3-hydroxy-3-methylbutanamido)-4,6-dideoxy-D-glucopyranose, named anthrose (Ant). The tetrasaccharide has the structure: β-Ant-(1→3)-α-L-Rhap-(1→3)-α-L-Rhap-(1→2)-L-Rhap. Oligosaccharide is attached to the BclA through a GalNAc linker. In its absence, GlcNAc can serve as a substitute linker.
