Function

[TRAI1_ECOLI] Conjugative DNA transfer (CDT) is the unidirectional transfer of ssDNA plasmid from a donor to a recipient cell. It is the central mechanism by which antibiotic resistance and virulence factors are propagated in bacterial populations. Part of the relaxosome, which facilitates a site- and strand-specific cut in the origin of transfer by TraI, at the nic site. Relaxosome formation requires binding of IHF and TraY to the oriT region, which then faciliates binding of TraI relaxase. TraI forms a covalent 5'-phosphotyrosine intermediate linkage to the ssDNA. The transesterified T-strand moves from the donor cell to the recipient cell in a 5'to 3' direction, with the DNA helicase activity of TraI unwinding the DNA. DNA transfer occurs via the conjugative pore (transferosome) an intercellular junction mediated by a type IV secretion system, with TraD providing the means to link the relaxosome to the conjugative pore. The relaxase completes DNA transfer by reversing the covalent phosphotyrosine linkage and releasing the T-strand.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] ^[5] TraI has also been identified as DNA helicase I. DNA. helicase I is a potent, highly processive DNA-dependent ATPase, able to unwind about 1.1 kb dsDNA per second in a 5' to 3' manner.^[6] ^[7] ^[8] ^[9] ^[10]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Conjugative plasmid transfer between bacteria disseminates antibiotic resistance and diversifies prokaryotic genomes. Relaxases, proteins essential for conjugation, cleave one plasmid strand sequence specifically prior to transfer. Cleavage occurs through a Mg(2+)-dependent transesterification involving a tyrosyl hydroxyl and a DNA phosphate. The structure of the F plasmid TraI relaxase domain, described here, is a five-strand beta sheet flanked by alpha helices. The protein resembles replication initiator protein AAV-5 Rep but is circularly permuted, yielding a different topology. The beta sheet forms a binding cleft lined with neutral, nonaromatic residues, unlike most single-stranded DNA binding proteins which use aromatic and charged residues. The cleft contains depressions, suggesting base recognition occurs in a knob-into-hole fashion. Unlike most nucleases, three histidines but no acidic residues coordinate a Mg(2+) located near the catalytic tyrosine. The full positive charge on the Mg(2+) and the architecture of the active site suggest multiple roles for Mg(2+) in DNA cleavage.
