Abstract excerpt

Protein translocation across the plasma membrane of E coli is facilitated by Sec factors, including the membrane-embedded SecYEG subunit and the SecA ATPase. Although there is complete agreement that SecA is essential for protein translocation, some publications question the essentialness of SecY...
