Abstract excerpt
SecM, a bacterial secretion monitor protein, posttranscriptionally regulates downstream gene expression via translation elongation arrest. SecM contains a characteristic amino acid sequence called the arrest sequence at its C-terminus, and this sequence acts within the ribosomal exit tunnel to stop translation. It has been widely assumed that the arrest sequence within the ribosome tunnel is sufficient for...
