Pseudomonas stutzeri has two closely related pilA genes (Type IV pilus structural protein) with opposite influences on natural genetic transformation.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2001

Graupner S, Wackernagel W

Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas stutzeri has type IV pili for which the pilA gene (here termed pilAI) provides the structural protein and which are required for DNA uptake and natural genetic transformation. Downstream of pilAI we identified a gene, termed pilAII, coding for a deduced protein with a size similar to that of PilAI with 55% amino acid sequence identity and with a typical leader peptide including a leader peptidase...
