Abstract excerpt
Many nascent polypeptides synthesized in the cytoplasm are translocated across membranes via a specific 'translocon' composed of protein complexes. Recently, a novel targeting pathway for the outer membrane β-barrel proteins (OMPs) in Gram-negative bacteria was discovered. The cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria is composed of the inner (plasma) membrane (IM) and the outer membrane (OM). In this new pathway,...
