We have characterized CagV and reported that it is an inner membrane protein and, like VirB8, forms a homodimer. Its stability is not dependent on the other Cag components and the absence of <i>cagV</i> affects the stability of only CagI, a protein involved in pilus formation. CagV is not required for the stability and localization of outer membrane subcomplex pro ...[more]
