The Type IV Pilus of Plasmid TP114 Displays Adhesins Conferring Conjugation Specificity and Is Important for DNA Transfer in the Mouse Gut Microbiota
Type IV pili (T4P) are common bacterial surface appendages involved in different biological processes such as adherence, motility, competence, pathogenesis, and conjugation. In this work, we describe the T4P of TP114, an IncI2 enterobacterial conjugative plasmid recently shown to disseminate at high...
