Effect of alteration of charged residues at the N termini of signal peptides on protein export in Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 1994

Abstract excerpt

The role of positively charged residues at the N termini of signal peptides in protein export has been studied in Bacillus subtilis. Bacillus signal peptides (alkaline protease [Apr] and neutral protease [Npr] from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) were altered and fused to mature levansucrase (Lvs). T...
