Cell--cell interactions in conjugating Escherichia coli: role of traT protein in surface exclusion.

Escherichia coli cells carrying the F sex factor are poor recipients in conjugation. This phenomenon is called surface exclusion. Two F cistrons, traS and traT, are independently responsible for part of the whole mechanism. The traS gene product reduces DNA transfer within stable mating aggregates....
