摘要：

pAD1, a conjugative, 60-kb, hemolysin-bacteriocin plasmid in Enterococcus faecalis, encodes a mating response to a small peptide sex pheromone, cAD1, secreted by potential recipient bacteria. A gene, trac, encoding a 60.7-kDa protein with a typical amino terminal signal peptide, was identified within a region that appears to encode a product that binds to exogenous pheromone. A cloned segment of DNA containing traC resulted in specific binding of cells to synthetic cAD1. The putative traC product has strong similarity to a product of the E. faecalis plasmid pCF10 as well as oligopeptide binding proteins of Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and Bacillus subtilis.
