The DNA is effective in transforming gonococci in the population, and this mechanism of DNA donation may contribute to the high degree of genetic diversity in this species. Similar to other F-like T4SSs, the gonococcal T4SS requires a putative membrane protein, TraG, for DNA transfer. In F-plasmid and related systems, the homologous protein acts in pilus production, mating pair stabilization, and entry exclusion. We characterized the localization, membrane topology, and variation of TraG in\n                    <jats:named-content xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" content-type=\"genus-species\" xlink:type=\"simple\">N. gonorrhoeae<\/jats:named-content>\n                    . TraG was found to be an inner-membrane protein with one large periplasmic region and one large cytoplasmic region. Each gonococcal strain carried one of three different alleles of\n                    <jats:italic>traG<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Strains that carried the smallest allele of\n                    <jats:italic>traG<\/jats:italic>\n                    were found to lack the peptidoglycanase gene\n                    <jats:italic>atlA<\/jats:italic>\n                    but carried a peptidoglycan endopeptidase gene in place of\n                    <jats:italic>atlA<\/jats:italic>\n                    . The purified endopeptidase degraded gonococcal peptidoglycan\n                    <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                    , cutting the peptide cross-links. Although the other two\n                    <jats:italic>traG<\/jats:italic>\n                    alleles functioned for DNA secretion in strain MS11, the smallest\n                    <jats:italic>traG<\/jats:italic>\n                    did not support DNA secretion. Despite the requirement for a mating pair stabilization homologue, static coculture transformation experiments demonstrated that DNA transfer was nuclease sensitive and required active uptake by the recipient, thus demonstrating that transfer occurred by transformation and not conjugation. Together, these results demonstrate the TraG acts in a process of DNA export not specific to conjugation and that different forms of TraG affect what substrates can be transported.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/jb.02098-12","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,2,1]],"date-time":"2013-02-01T23:34:41Z","timestamp":1359761681000},"page":"1666-1679","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Mating Pair Formation Homologue TraG Is a Variable Membrane Protein Essential for Contact-Independent Type IV Secretion of Chromosomal DNA by Neisseria gonorrhoeae"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"195","author":[{"given":"Petra L.","family":"Kohler","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yolande A.","family":"Chan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kathleen T.","family":"Hackett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicholas","family":"Turner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Holly L.","family":"Hamilton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karen A.","family":"Cloud-Hansen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joseph P.","family":"Dillard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JB.183.16.4718-4726.2001"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"263","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2958.2001.02520.x","article-title":"A variable genetic island specific for Neisseria gonorrhoeae is involved in providing DNA for natural transformation and is found more often in disseminated infection isolates","volume":"41","author":"Dillard JP","year":"2001","unstructured":"DillardJP SeifertHS. 2001.
