The role of the pilus in recipient cell recognition during bacterial conjugation mediated by F‐like plasmids

Summary The effects of defined mutations In the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the outer membrane protein OmpA of the recipient cell on mating‐pair formation in liquid media by the transfer systems of the F‐Iike plasmids pOX38 (F), ColB2 and R100‐1 were investigated. Transfer of all three plasmids was...
