Attenuation of the Type IV Pilus Retraction Motor Influences <named-content content-type="genus-species">Neisseria gonorrhoeae</named-content> Social and Infection Behavior

ABSTRACT Retraction of the type IV pilus (Tfp) mediates DNA uptake, motility, and social and infection behavior in a wide variety of prokaryotes. To date, investigations into Tfp retraction-dependent activities have used a mutant deleted of PilT, the ATPase motor protein that causes the pilus fiber...
