Bacterial type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) mediate the conjugative transfer of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) and their cargoes of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes. Here, we report that the pED208-encoded T4SS (TrapED208) translocates not only this F plasmid but several plasmid-encoded proteins, including ParA, ParB1, single-stranded DNA-binding protein SSB, ParB2, PsiB, and PsiA, to recipient cells. Conjugative protein translocation through the TrapED208 T4SS required engagement of the pED208 relaxosome with the TraD substrate receptor or coupling protein. T4SSs translocate MGEs as single-stranded DNA intermediates (T-strands), which triggers the SOS response in recipient cells. Transfer of pED208 deleted of psiB or ssb, which, respectively, encode the SOS inhibitor protein PsiB and single-stranded DNA-binding protein SSB, elicited a significantly stronger SOS response than pED208 or mutant plasmids deleted of psiA, parA, parB1, or parB2. Conversely, translocation of PsiB or SSB, but not PsiA, through the TrapED208 T4SS suppressed the mating-induced SOS response. Our findings expand the repertoire of known substrates of conjugation systems to include proteins with functions associated with plasmid maintenance. Furthermore, for this and other F-encoded Tra systems, docking of the DNA substrate with the TraD receptor appears to serve as a critical activating signal for protein translocation. Finally, the observed effects of PsiB and SSB on suppression of the mating-induced SOS response establishes a novel biological function for conjugative protein translocation and suggests the potential for interbacterial protein translocation to manifest in diverse outcomes influencing bacterial communication, physiology, and evolution. IMPORTANCE Many bacteria carry plasmids and other mobile genetic elements (MGEs) whose conjugative transfer through encoded type IV secretion systems (T4SSs), or "mating" channels, can lead to a rapid intra- and interspecies proliferation of genes encoding resistance to antibiotics or heavy metals or virulence traits. Here, we show that a model IncF plasmid-encoded T4SS translocates not only DNA but also several proteins intercellularly. The repertoire of translocated proteins includes the plasmidic SOS inhibitor protein PsiB, single-stranded DNA-binding protein SSB, and several partitioning proteins. We demonstrate that intercellular transmission of PsiB and SSB suppresses the SOS response, which is triggered in recipient cells upon acquisition of the single-stranded DNA transfer intermediate during mating. Our findings identify a new biological function for conjugative protein translocation in mitigating potentially deleterious consequences to plasmid and genome integrity resulting from SOS-induced recombination and mutation events.
