TraG-Like Proteins of DNA Transfer Systems and of the Helicobacter pylori Type IV Secretion System: Inner Membrane Gate for Exported Substrates?
Gunnar F. Schröder,Sabine Krause,Ellen L. Zechner,Beth Traxler,Hye-Jeong Yeo,Rudi Lurz,Gabriel Waksman,Erich Lanka +7 more
TL;DR: The biochemical characterization of three members of the family of TraG-like proteins, TraG (RP4), TraD (F), and HP0524 (H. pylori) were found to have a pronounced tendency to form oligomers and were shown to bind DNA without sequence specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kin cell lysis is a danger signal that activates antibacterial pathways of pseudomonas aeruginosa
Michele LeRoux,Robin L. Kirkpatrick,Elena I. Montauti,Bao Q. Tran,S. Brook Peterson,Brittany N. Harding,John C. Whitney,Alistair B. Russell,Beth Traxler,Young Ah Goo,David R. Goodlett,Paul A. Wiggins,Joseph D. Mougous +12 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that lysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells triggers a program in the remaining population that confers fitness in interspecies co-culture and involves rapid deployment of antibacterial factors and is mediated by the Gac/Rsm global regulatory pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insertion of the Polytopic Membrane Protein MalF Is Dependent on the Bacterial Secretion Machinery
Beth Traxler,Chris Murphy +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the mechanism of export from the cytoplasm is related for both signal sequence-containing and cy toplasmic membrane proteins, but hydrophobic membrane proteins such as MalF may have a higher affinity for the Sec apparatus.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unique regulator controls the activation threshold of quorum-regulated genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
TL;DR: A regulator without close homologs in other species that produces the quorum expression threshold is uncovered and governs two central QS control points in P. aeruginosa and shapes the expression pattern thought fundamental to the biological functions of QS.
Journal ArticleDOI
The topological analysis of integral cytoplasmic membrane proteins
TL;DR: Three general approaches to determining the topology of integral cytoplasmic membrane proteins are reviewed: inspection of the amino acid sequence and use of algorithms to predict membrane spanning segments, biochemical probes and the site of natural biochemical modifications of membrane proteins give information on their topology.
