Abstract excerpt
The folding of in vitro synthesized outer membrane protein PhoE of Escherichia coli was studied in immunoprecipitation experiments with monoclonal antibodies which recognize cell surface-exposed conformational epitopes. The signal sequence appears to interfere with the formation of these conformational epitopes, since a mutant PhoE protein which lacks the majority of the signal peptide could be precipitated four...
