Abstract excerpt
It is thought that the topology of a polytopic protein is generated by sequential translocation and membrane integration of independent signal-anchor and stop-transfer sequences. Two well-characterized cell-free systems (rabbit reticulocyte lysate and wheat germ extract) have been widely used to study the biogenesis of secretory and membrane proteins, but different results have been observed with proteins...
