ComC is required for the processing and translocation of comGC, a pilin-like competence protein of Bacillus subtilis.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Feb 1995

Chung Y S, Dubnau D

Abstract excerpt

ComGC is a cell surface-localized protein required for DNA binding during transformation in Bacillus subtilis. It resembles type IV prepilins in its N-terminal domain, particularly in the amino acid sequence surrounding the processing cleavage sites of these proteins. ComC is another protein required for DNA binding, which resembles the processing proteases that cleave type IV prepilins. We show here that ComGC...
