• Length: 105 a.a.
• NCBI ID: WP_012130940.1
• Uniprot ID: -

• Function: dsDNA binding to the cell surface; assembly of the pseudopilus DNA binding and uptake

Function

comYA appeared to be part of a putative operon encompassing a comGB homolog, designated comYB, together with sequences that could encode ComGC- and ComGD-like peptides designated ComYC and ComYD, respectively, as well as other components. Northern analysis identified a single 6.0-kb comYA-containing transcript strictly dependent on exogenous competence factor for expression in ComA1 cells. An identical pattern of expression was seen in wild-type Challis cells grown under conditions of maximal competence but not in cells that were noncompetent.
