Recent structural data have indicated that only a single usher pore in the dimeric usher complex is used for pilus secretion. During polymerization, the Nte on the incoming pilin subunit replaces the chaperone G1 strand, and this donor strand exchange reaction, including the 'zip-in, zip-out' mechanism, is also reviewed. Pilin subunits also contain an amino-terminal extension (Nte) peptide that is disordered in the chaperone–subunit complex. This donor strand complementation reaction is discussed in light of the most recent structural and biochemical data. When the chaperone–pilin complex is formed, a structural motif on the G1 strand of the chaperone is inserted into this groove. Pilin subunits contain an incomplete, immunoglobulin-like fold that lacks the carboxy-terminal β-strand, which results in the presence of a large hydrophobic groove. Over the past decade, a plethora of structural information has been gathered about the various players that participate in P and type 1 pilus biogenesis, and these structural data, including the newly determined usher structures, are reviewed in detail. This Review focuses on the rod-like fimbrial organelles, particularly uropathogenic Escherichia coli P and type 1 pili (the Pap and Fim systems, respectively). CU pili comprise linear, unbranched polymers of several hundreds to thousands of 12–20 kDa pilin subunits. The dual settings of New York and Wichita allow Moriarty to explore both the urban progressiveness of a large city and the changes taking place in smaller Midwestern cities like Wichita.Chaperone–usher (CU) pili are assembled at the outer membrane by two proteins, a periplasmic chaperone, which provides the scaffold for the correct folding of pilins, and an outer-membrane protein called the usher, which forms a dimeric complex at the outer membrane to recruit and polymerize chaperone–subunit complexes and translocate the growing pilus to the outer surface. The Chaperone explores themes of sexuality, ambition, fame, changes in social expectations for women, racial equality, personal identity, and social influence during the 1920s in America. These changes in her life are the result of her increased confidence and self-knowledge, traits that she develops throughout the book. Cora also becomes an advocate for birth control access and charitable assistance to unwed mothers. Cora and Joseph remain discreet lovers for the rest of their lives, and Alan’s lover spends time in the Carlisle home as well. Louise is asked to become a permanent member of the dance company, and she stays in New York to continue her budding career. She brings Joseph and his young daughter back to her and Alan’s home in Wichita, where they all live together for decades.

At the New York orphanage, she meets the home’s handyman, Joseph Schmidt, and the two become lovers. Cora gradually realizes that she’s sexually frustrated, and she longs for a romantic connection. Her birth father abandoned her mother before Cora was born, and her mother makes it clear that she doesn’t want a relationship with her illegitimate daughter, crushing Cora’s hopes of developing a relationship with her long-lost parents.Ĭora’s husband, Alan, is a closeted gay man, a revelation that results in a sexless marriage for more than a decade. She discovers the identity of her birth mother, and they meet once. Cora has her own reasons for wanting to visit the city: She grew up in a New York orphanage before being sent to Kansas for adoption and wants to find out about her birth family.Ĭora undertakes the task of keeping the headstrong, unconventional Louise in line with 1920s notions of respectability while secretly investigating her own past. Louise has been accepted to a summer session at a prestigious dance school there and dreams of becoming famous. In 1922, Cora Carlisle, a 36-year-old wife and mother from Wichita, Kansas, volunteers to accompany 15-year-old aspiring dancer Louise Brooks to New York City for the summer.

The Chaperone is set primarily in 1922 but includes flashbacks to the late 1800s/early 1900s and flash-forwards to the 1950s and 1960s.
