Abstract excerpt
The SecY/Sec61 translocon complex, located in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane of eukaryotes (Sec61) or the plasma membrane of prokaryotes (SecY), mediates the transmembrane secretion or insertion of nascent proteins. Mutations that permit the secretion of nascent proteins with defective signal sequences (Prl-phenotype), or interfere with the transmembrane orientation of newly synthesized protein segments, can...
