Composition and activity of the non-canonical Gram-positive SecY2 complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The accessory Sec system in Streptococcus gordonii DL1 is a specialized export system that transports a large serine-rich repeat protein, Hsa, to the bacterial surface.

Redox regulation in chloroplast thylakoid lumen: The pmf changes everything, again

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 8, Page 2749-2765, August 2024.
Abstract Photosynthesis is the foundation of life on Earth. However, if not well regulated, it can also generate excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can cause photodamage. Regulation of photosynthesis is highly dynamic, responding to both environmental and metabolic cues, and occurs at many levels, from light capture to energy storage and ...

Bacterial Glycolipid Acting on Protein Transport Across Membranes

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 10, May 17, 2024.
In Escherichia coli inner membranes, diacylglycerol (DAG) and a glycolipid, named membrane protein integrase (MPIase), particularly influence membrane protein transport. This review explores the mechanisms of membrane protein integration mediated by these factors, and the methods and results of physicochemical analysis are presented.

Comparison of Single and Multiple Turnovers of SecYEG in Escherichia coli

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2020
Vastly different experimental techniques and conditions have been used to study export in E. coli . We demonstrated that altering experimental conditions can change the step that is observed during study. Investigators should consider specific experimental conditions when comparing data from different laboratories ...

Shaping the lipid composition of bacterial membranes for membrane protein production

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2019
Background The overexpression and purification of membrane proteins is a bottleneck in biotechnology and structural biology. E. coli remains the host of choice for membrane protein production.

Bacterial protein translocation requires only one copy of the SecY complex in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The transport of proteins across the plasma membrane in bacteria requires a channel formed from the SecY complex, which cooperates with either a translating ribosome in cotranslational translocation or the SecA ATPase in post-translational translocation.

Weak links: Advancing target‐based drug discovery by identifying the most vulnerable targets

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1535, Issue 1, Page 10-19, May 2024.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death due to infectious disease. Developing new antibiotics that can shorten TB treatment time will require innovation in target‐based drug discovery in addition to phenotypic screens. In this review, we highlight a novel metric to prioritize essential targets: vulnerability.

HDX-MS reveals nucleotide-dependent, anti-correlated opening and closure of SecA and SecY channels of the bacterial translocon

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The bacterial Sec translocon is a multi-protein complex responsible for translocating diverse proteins across the plasma membrane. For post-translational protein translocation, the Sec-channel – SecYEG – associates with the motor protein SecA to mediate ...
