Abstract excerpt
The export of colicin A and of colicin E1 is not equally affected in both secA and secY mutants of Escherichia coli: release of colicin A occurs slowly while that of colicin E1 is blocked. Processing and functioning of Cal, the colicin A lysis protein, seem to be slightly or not at all modified in these mutants, whereas synthesis and assembly of CelA, the colicin E1 lysis protein, are highly inhibited. These...
