Function | Component of the T4SS VirB/D4 required for the translocation of the virulence factors (VirE2, VirF and the VirD2-T-DNA complex) to plant cells. VirB5 is the minor component of extracellular T pilus, in which it localizes at the tips of cell-bund T pili as well as at the ends of detached T pili and on the cell surface. The tip-localized VirB5 impacts host-cell recognition. Also, VirB5 is essential for the incorporation of the major component VirB2 into T-pili. |
