Abstract excerpt
F and R27 are conjugative plasmids of enteric bacteria belonging to the IncF and IncHI1 plasmid incompatibility groups, respectively. Based on sequence analysis, two genes of the F transfer region, traF and trbB, and three genes of the R27 transfer region, trhF, dsbC, and htdT, are predicted to encode periplasmic proteins containing a C-terminal thioredoxin fold. The C-X-X-C active-site motif of thioredoxins is...
