Agrobacterium rhizogenes Causes hairy root disease instead of crown
gall. DNA transfer occurs without two essential
proteins (VirE1 and VirE2) found in Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Domains in the GALLS Protein
NTP-Binding TraA-Like T4SS

Similarities between GALLS and VirE2
Both have a type four secretion signal. Both contain a nuclear localization signal,
however they are not the same amino acid sequence.

Differences between GALLS and VirE2
Nucleotide sequences show no homology. Only GALLS has a nucleoside triphosphate
binding motif. GALLS has a molecular weight more than
three times that of VirE2. There is no evidence of a chaperone for
GALLS.

Purpose Protein purification Use in creating antibodies that will work on
normal GALLS protein Antibodies will allow recognition of protein
in other studies

Polyhistidine affinity tags Series of 6 histidine amino acid residues
allows for purification because of its affinity for a nickel column, allowing most other proteins to be removed.

Retaining function Created two his-tagged proteins, one at each
end of the DNA sequence encoding for the protein.
Hopefully one or the other will retain function.
Purification of functional protein will allow us to study: ATP binding and hydrolysis, DNA binding, and other functions.
