'''CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE QUORUM-SENSING PROTEIN TRAM FROM AGROBACTERIUM TUMEFACIENS'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal structure of the quorum-sensing protein TraM from Agrobacterium tumefaciens==
Transfer of the tumor-inducing plasmid in Agrobacterium tumefaciens is, controlled by a quorum-sensing system whose main components are the, transcriptional regulator TraR and its autoinducer. This system allows, bacteria to synchronize infection of the host plant when a "quorum" of, cells has been reached. TraM is an A. tumefaciens protein involved in the, regulation of this system because it binds to TraR and prevents it from, binding DNA. As a first step to understanding the molecular basis for the, regulation of TraR by TraM, we have determined the crystal structure of, TraM at 1.65 A resolution. This protein is packed as a dimer, with each, monomer consisting mainly of two antiparallel alpha helices. Monomers are, tightly associated, with a large hydrophobic area buried upon, dimerization. Secondly, we characterized the TraR-TraM complex in vitro., TraM (11.4 kDa, monomer molecular mass) binds tightly TraR (27 kDa, monomer molecular mass) forming a stable oligomeric complex that likely, accounts for two TraR and two TraM dimers.
