Abstract excerpt
SecB is a 16-kDa cytosolic chaperone protein that is required for efficient export of particular proteins in Escherichia coli. To identify regions of SecB that contribute to efficient protein export, we isolated secB point mutants that are defective for protein export in vivo. We obtained missense mutations at residues Leu75 (SecBL75Q), Cys76 (SecBC76Y), and Glu77 (SecBE77K) in the center of the secB gene. In...
