Abstract excerpt
Streptomyces lividans uses mainly two pathways to target secretory proteins to the cytoplasmic membrane. The major pathway (Sec pathway) transports pre-proteins using the signal recognition particle, and the minor Tat pathway is responsible for the secretion using a folded conformation of a relatively low number of proteins. The signal peptides of the Sec-dependent alpha-amylase and the Tat-dependent agarase were...
