Modified Recombinant Proteins Can Be Exported via the Sec Pathway in Escherichia coli
The correct folding of a protein is a pre-requirement for its proper posttranslational modification. The Escherichia coli Sec pathway, in which preproteins, in an unfolded, translocation-competent state, are rapidly secreted across the cytoplasmic membrane, is commonly assumed to be unfavorable for their modification in the cytosol. Whether posttranslationally modified recombinant preproteins c...
متن کاملIncreased expression of the bifunctional protein PrlF suppresses overproduction lethality associated with exported beta-galactosidase hybrid proteins in Escherichia coli.
We have cloned and determined the nucleotide sequence of the prlF gene. An open reading frame predicting a 111-amino-acid protein (Mr 12,351) with an acidic carboxy terminus was identified. The DNA sequence preceding this open reading frame revealed a putative promoter and a ribosome-binding site. The nucleotide sequence of the prlF1 mutation revealed a 7-base-pair duplication resulting in a sl...
متن کاملNetwork of hydrogenase maturation in Escherichia coli: role of accessory proteins HypA and HybF.
We have studied the roles of the auxiliary protein HypA and of its homolog HybF in hydrogenase maturation. A mutation in hypA leads to the nearly complete blockade of maturation solely of hydrogenase 3 whereas a lesion in hybF drastically but not totally reduces maturation and activity of isoenzymes 1 and 2. The residual level of matured enzymes in the hybF mutant was shown to be due to the fun...
متن کاملTatD is a central component of a Tat translocon-initiated quality control system for exported FeS proteins in Escherichia coli.
Bacterial Tat systems export folded proteins, including FeS proteins such as NrfC and NapG, which acquire their cofactors before translocation. NrfC and NapG are proofread by the Tat pathway, and misfolded examples are degraded after interaction with the translocon. Here, we identify TatD as a crucial component of this quality control system in Escherichia coli. NrfC/NapG variants lacking FeS c...
متن کاملMethylation of ribosomal proteins in Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli was grown in a medium containing [1-(14)C]methionine and [methyl-(3)H]methionine, and the (3)H/(14)C ratio was determined for each of the ribosomal proteins derived from the 70S ribosome. Evidence indicates that six proteins from the 50S subunit were methylated: L7, L9, L11, L12, L18, and L33. Methylation of several other 50S proteins (such as L1, L3, L5, etc.) may also occur. ...
