additional information | construction of SecA N-terminal deletion mutants. The first small helix, the linker and part of the second helix (residues 2-22) are dispensable for SecA activity in complementing the growth of a SecA temperature-sensitive mutant. Deletions of N-terminal aminoacyl residues 23-25 result in severe progressive retardation of growth. A decrease of SecA activity caused by N-terminal deletions correlates to the loss of SecA membrane binding, formation of lipid-specific domains and channel activity. The N-terminal aminoacyl residues 23-25 play a critical role for SecA binding to membranes and the N-terminal limit of SecA for activity is at the 25th amino acid | Escherichia coli |
