Abstract excerpt
Trimethylamine N-oxide reductase (TorA) is an anaerobically synthesized molybdoenzyme. It is translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane in a folded conformation via the Tat pathway of Escherichia coli. The requirement for phospholipids for the export of this enzyme was analyzed in the pgsA and pss mutants lacking anionic phospholipids and phosphatidylethanolamine, respectively. Anaerobic growth did not...
