The Agrobacterium tumefaciens VirB11 ATPase is a component of a type IV transporter dedicated to T-DNA delivery to plant cells. In this study, we tested a prediction from genetic findings that VirB11 self-associates in vivo. A chimeric protein composed of VirB11 fused to the DNA binding domain of lambda cI repressor protein formed dimers, as shown by immunity of Escherichia coli to lambda superinfection. An...
