Assembly of a functional phage PRD1 receptor depends on 11 genes of the IncP plasmid mating pair formation complex.

Abstract

PRD1, a lipid-containing double-stranded DNA bacteriophage, uses the mating pair formation (Mpf) complex encoded by conjugative IncP plasmids as a receptor. Functions responsible for conjugative transfer of IncP plasmids are encoded by two distinct regions, Tra1 and Tra2. Ten Tra2 region gene products (TrbB to TrbL) and one from the Tra1 region (TraF) form the Mpf complex. We carried out a mutational analysis of the PRD1 receptor complex proteins by isolating spontaneous PRD1-resistant mutants. The mutations were distributed among the trb genes in the Tra2 region and accumulated predominantly in three genes, trbC, trbE, and trbL. Three of 307 phage-resistant mutants were weakly transfer proficient. Mutations causing a phage adsorption-deficient, transfer-positive phenotype were analyzed by sequencing.
