An active type IV secretion system encoded by the F plasmid sensitizes Escherichia coli to bile salts.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Aug 2004

Bidlack James E, Silverman Philip M

Abstract excerpt

F(+) strains of Escherichia coli infected with donor-specific bacteriophage such as M13 are sensitive to bile salts. We show here that this sensitivity has two components. The first derives from secretion of bacteriophage particles through the cell envelope, but the second can be attributed to expression of the F genes required for the formation of conjugative (F) pili. The latter component was manifested as...
