H pilin cyclisation and pilus biogenesis are promiscuous but electrostatic perturbations impair conjugation efficiency

Abstract During conjugation, plasmid DNA is transferred from donor to recipient bacteria via the plasmid-encoded mating pilus, formed as thin helical assemblies of polymerised pilin subunits. In the IncHI1 R27 plasmid-encoded pilus, the TrhA pilin undergoes cyclisation (via a peptide bond between Gl...
