Infection of Escherichia coli by the filamentous phage f1 is initiated by binding of the phage to the tip of the F conjugative pilus via the gene III protein. Subsequent translocation of phage DNA requires the chromosomally encoded TolQ, TolR, and TolA proteins, after the pilus presumably has withdr...
