Abstract excerpt
The Staphylococcus carnosus secA gene was cloned using the Bacillus subtilis secA gene as a probe. The S. carnosus secA encodes a polypeptide of 844 amino acid residues which is homologous to other known SecA proteins. The S. carnosus SecA functionally complemented the growth and secretion defects of a temperature-sensitive B. subtilis secA mutant at the non-permissive temperature. In contrast, the growth defect...
