Mentoring for surgical skills: a tool to share the workload.
© 2007 Association médicale canadienne R ecently, concern has been expressed that Canada’s current system for treating patients needing surgery is not sustainable in the long run. It has been suggested that the number of surgeons be increased or that nonphysician care providers be recruited to take on some responsibilities so that the efficiency with which the care is delivered can be improved....
متن کاملSec- and Tat-mediated protein secretion across the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane--distinct translocases and mechanisms.
In bacteria, two major pathways exist to secrete proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane. The general Secretion route, termed Sec-pathway, catalyzes the transmembrane translocation of proteins in their unfolded conformation, whereupon they fold into their native structure at the trans-side of the membrane. The Twin-arginine translocation pathway, termed Tat-pathway, catalyses the translocation...
متن کاملSec- and Tat-dependent translocation of beta-lactamases across the Escherichia coli inner membrane.
beta-Lactamases represent the major resistance mechanism of gram-negative bacteria against beta-lactam antibiotics. The amino acid sequences of these proteins vary widely, but all are located in the periplasm of bacteria. In this study, we investigated the translocation mechanism of representative beta-lactamases in an Escherichia coli model. N-terminal signal sequence analyses, antibiotic acti...
متن کاملCombined prediction of Tat and Sec signal peptides with hidden Markov models
MOTIVATION Computational prediction of signal peptides is of great importance in computational biology. In addition to the general secretory pathway (Sec), Bacteria, Archaea and chloroplasts possess another major pathway that utilizes the Twin-Arginine translocase (Tat), which recognizes longer and less hydrophobic signal peptides carrying a distinctive pattern of two consecutive Arginines (RR)...
متن کاملCompetition between Sec- and TAT-dependent protein translocation in Escherichia coli.
Recently, a new protein translocation pathway, the twin-arginine translocation (TAT) pathway, has been identified in both bacteria and chloroplasts. To study the possible competition between the TAT- and the well-characterized Sec translocon-dependent pathways in Escherichia coli, we have fused the TorA TAT-targeting signal peptide to the Sec-dependent inner membrane protein leader peptidase (L...
