Effects of i2 mutations on VirB9 partner interactions with VirB7 and VirB10. (A) Detection of disulfide-cross-linked VirB7-VirB9 dimers (∼36-kDa) and VirB9 monomers (29-kDa) in total cell extracts by nonreducing SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis with anti-VirB9 antibodies. (B) Detection of the putative VirB9-VirB10 complexes by immunoprecipitation with anti-VirB10 antibodies. Immunoprecipitates were analyzed for VirB9 and VirB10 by SDS-PAGE and development of immunoblots with antibodies to both proteins. WT, strain A348; ΔB9, strains PC1009 and PC1009 producing native VirB9 (B9) and the VirB9.i2 mutants (i2 insertion sites shown).
