Abstract
The predicted amino acid sequences of the pilL and pilN genes, required for the thin pilus formation of IncI1 plasmids R64 and ColIb-P9, contain N-terminal lipoprotein signal peptide motifs. The pilL and pilN products were labeled with [3H]palmitic acid as 38- and 57-kDa proteins, respectively, indicating that they are lipoproteins. Both PilL and PilN were localized to the outer membrane.
