Abstract excerpt
secA is translationally regulated by the protein secretion proficiency state of the Escherichia coli cell. This regulation was explored by making signal sequence mutations in the gene upstream of secA, gene X, which promotes secA translational coupling. Gene X signal sequence mutants were constitutive for secA expression, while prlA alleles partially restored secA regulation. These results show that interaction...
