TraT lipoprotein, a plasmid-specified mediator of interactions between gram-negative bacteria and their environment.

Microbiological reviews - 1 Dec 1990

Sukupolvi S, O'Connor C D

Abstract excerpt

The TraT protein is a cell-surface-exposed, outer membrane lipoprotein specified by large, usually conjugative, F-like plasmids. Two biological activities have been associated with the protein: (i) prevention of self-mating of cells carrying identical or closely related conjugative plasmids, by blocking the formation of stable mating aggregates; and (ii) resistance to the bactericidal activities of serum,...
