Sec-dependent membrane protein biogenesis: SecYEG, preprotein hydrophobicity and translocation kinetics control the stop-transfer function

The EMBO Journal
F Duong, W Wickner

Abstract

Preprotein translocase catalyzes membrane protein integration as well as complete translocation. Membrane proteins must interrupt their translocation and be laterally released from the translocase into the lipid bilayer. We have analyzed the translocation arrest and lateral release activities of Escherichia coli preprotein translocase with an in vitro reaction and the preprotein proOmpA carrying a synthetic stop-transfer sequence. Membrane protein integration is catalytic, occurs with kinetics similar to those of proOmpA itself and only requires the functions of SecYEG and SecA. Though a strongly hydrophobic segment will direct the protein to leave the translocase and enter the lipid bilayer, a protein with a segment of intermediate hydrophobicity partitions equally between the translocated and membrane-integrated states. Analysis of the effects of PMF, varied ATP concentrations or synthetic translocation arrest show that the stop-translocation efficiency of a mildly hydrophobic segment depends on the translocation kinetics. In contrast, the lateral partitioning from translocase to lipids depends solely on temperature and does not require SecA ATP hydrolysis or SecA membrane cycling. Thus translocation arrest is controlled by t...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule.
