Abstract
Background:Brushbordermicrovilliare,1-mmlongfinger-likeprojectionsemanatingfromtheapicalsurfacesofcertain,
specializedabsorptiveepithelialcells.Ahighlysymmetrichexagonalarrayofthousandsoftheseuniformlysizedstructures
form the brush border, which in addition to aiding in nutrient absorption also defends the large surface area against
pathogens. Here, we present a molecular model of the protein cytoskeleton responsible for this dramatic cellular
morphology.
Methodology/Principal Findings: The model is constructed from published crystallographic and microscopic structures
reportedbyseveralgroupsoverthelast30+years.Oureffortsresultedinasingle,unique,self-consistentarrangementof

protein crystals. The proposed model accounts for all major proteinaceous components, reproduces the experimentally
determinedstoichiometry,andisconsistentwiththesizeandmorphologyofthebiologicalbrushbordermembrane.
Conclusions/Significance:Themodelpresentedherewillserveasastructuralframeworktoexplainmanyofthedynamic
cellularprocessesoccurringoverseveraltimescales,suchasproteindiffusion,association,andturnover,lipidraftsorting,
membrane deformation, cytoskeletal-membrane interactions, and even effacement of the brush border by invading
pathogens. In addition, this model provides a structural basis for evaluating the equilibrium processes that result in the
uniformsizeandstructureofthehighlydynamicmicrovilli.
