Dual Targeting Factors Are Required for LXG Toxin Export by the Bacterial Type VIIb Secretion System

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Bacterial type VIIb secretion systems (T7SSb) are multisubunit integral membrane protein complexes found in Firmicutes that play a role in both bacterial competition and virulence by secreting toxic effector proteins.

Developing Gram-negative bacteria for the secretion of heterologous proteins

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2018
Gram-negative bacteria are attractive hosts for recombinant protein production because they are fast growing, easy to manipulate, and genetically stable in large cultures. However, the utility of these microbes would expand if they also could secrete the

Diversification of the type IV filament superfamily into machines for adhesion, protein secretion, DNA uptake, and motility

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2019
Processes of molecular innovation require tinkering and shifting in the function of existing genes. How this occurs in terms of molecular evolution at long evolutionary scales remains poorly understood.

Efficient Secretion and Recombinant Production of a Lactobacillal α-amylase in Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WCFS1: Analysis and Comparison of the Secretion Using Different Signal Peptides

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been used as starter cultures and producers of enzymes, antimicrobial peptides or metabolites that contribute to the flavor, texture and safety of food products.

Protein secretion in streptomycetes [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2006
Some aspects of the current knowledge on protein secretion in streptomycetes are presented including recent data on the identification of genes in the general secretory pathway, on the importance of the signal peptide structure and on the number of ribosome-binding sites inside signal peptides which can influence the production level of a gene product.

The Evolutionarily Conserved Serine Residues in BRI1 LRR Motifs Are Critical for Protein Secretion

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
As a well-studied leucine-rich-repeat receptor-like kinases (LRR-RLKs) in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), BRI1 functions as a cell surface receptor for sensing the smallest ligand molecule identified thus far. The weak allele bri1-9 (S662F) harbors a

RAB6 and microtubules restrict protein secretion to focal adhesions

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2019
Fourriere et al. demonstrate the existence of secretion hotspots juxtaposed to focal adhesions. Post-Golgi transport carriers use a subset of microtubules to reach focal adhesions.

Monitoring cytosolic H2O2 fluctuations arising from altered plasma membrane gradients or from mitochondrial activity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Reliable methods of measuring intracellular H2O2 fluctuations are necessary to advance redox biology. Here the authors design a H2O2 sensor based on the fission yeast peroxiredoxin Tpx1 to sense nanomolar fluctuations of intracellular H2O2 in response to

Structural Basis of Type 2 Secretion System Engagement between the Inner and Outer Bacterial Membranes

open access: yesmBio, 2017
Sophisticated nanomachines are used by bacteria for protein secretion. In Gram-negative bacteria, the type 2 secretion system (T2SS) is composed of a pseudopilus assembly platform in the inner membrane and a secretin complex in the outer membrane.

Protein secretion: Puzzling receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1997
All known sorting receptors for soluble cargo in the secretory pathway are transmembrane proteins. For sorting to the regulated pathway, however, a subpopulation of secretory proteins, associated with the membrane but not membrane-spanning, appears to link cargo and membrane in storage granule biogenesis.
