During planktonic growth CC they allow positioning of the organism at a favorable depth for light CC or nutrient acquisition. GvpA forms the protein shell. CC -!- SUBUNIT: The gas vesicle shell is 2 nm thick and consists of a single CC layer of this protein. It forms helical ribs nearly perpendicular CC to the long axis of the vesicle. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Gas vesicle shell. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the gas vesicle GvpA family.
