London Lewis Traw
USS ''Traw'' (DE-350) was a in service with the United States Navy from 1944 to 1946. She was sunk as a target in 1968. Namesake London Lewis Traw was born on 1 April 1903 in Pocahontas, Arkansas. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps on 15 December 1924 and, in the course of a career which spanned 18 years, achieved the rank of platoon sergeant. He served with the Marine Detachment on board for his first term of service before going into the Reserves in 1928. Returning to active duty in late 1931, Private First Class Traw served in China from August 1936 until February 1938, during which time he was promoted to Corporal and then Platoon sergeant. Following a posting to Guantánamo Bay between December 1940 and April 1941, Platoon sergeant Traw deployed with the First Marine Division for service in the Pacific in early 1942. Following the 7 August 1942 landing on Guadalcanal, Sgt. Traw participated in the bitter fighting around Lunga Point in the months following ...

Transfer Gene
Transfer genes or tra genes (also transfer operons or tra operons), are some genes necessary for non-sexual Bacterial conjugation, transfer of genetic material in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The tra locus includes the pilin gene and regulatory genes, which together form pili on the cell surface, polymeric proteins that can attach themselves to the surface of F-bacteria and initiate the conjugation. The existence of the tra region of a plasmid genome was first discovered in 1979 by David H. Figurski and Donald R. Helinski In the course of their work, Figurski and Helinski also discovered a second key fact about the tra region – that it can act in '':wikt:trans-, trans'' to the mobilization marker which it affects. This finding suggested that there were two basic aspects necessary for a plasmid to move from one cell to another: # An origin of transfer – A plasmid with no origin of transfer is non-mobilizable. # The transfer genes – Though a fun ...
