Protein Family Models

This is an N-terminal domain on a family of putative Flp pilus-assembly proteins. The exact function is not known. The Flp-pilus biogenesis genes include the Tad genes, and some members of this family are putatively assigned as being TadG [1,2]. [1]. 11029439. Nonspecific adherence by Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans requires genes widespread in bacteria and archaea. Kachlany SC, Planet PJ, Bhattacharjee MK, Kollia E, DeSalle R, Fine DH, Figurski DH;.

This HMM (PF09977) hits many of the same proteins in the N-terminal half, while PF13400 hits these same proteins even further upstream. Member proteins include TadG, involved in Flp pilus assembly.
