Abstract excerpt
The secretion of proteins from the cytoplasm of Escherichia coli requires the interaction of two integral inner membrane components, SecY and SecE. We have devised a genetic approach to probe the molecular nature of the SecY-SecE interaction. Suppressor alleles of secY and secE, termed prlA and prlG, respectively, were analyzed in pair-wise combinations for synthetic phenotypes. From a total of 115 combinations,...
