Functional Analysis of TraA, the Sex Pheromone Receptor Encoded by pPD1, in a Promoter Region Essential for the Mating Response in Enterococcus faecalis

Conjugative transfer of a bacteriocin plasmid, pPD1, of Enterococcus faecalis is induced in response to a peptide sex pheromone, cPD1, secreted from plasmid-free recipient cells. cPD1 is taken up by a pPD1 donor cell and binds to an intracellular receptor, TraA. Once a recipient cell acquires pPD1,...
