Abstract excerpt
Trigger factor is an abundant cytosolic protein of Escherichia coli which can stabilize proOmpA for in vitro translocation across inner membrane vesicles. The gene encoding E. coli trigger factor was isolated and sequenced, allowing construction of strains in which the expression of trigger facto...
