The archaeal twin-arginine translocation pathway.
The twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway is a system with the unique ability to export proteins in a fully folded conformation. Its main components are TatA, TatB and TatC, all of which are required for Tat-dependent export. The Tat pathway is found in several Archaea, and in most of them a moderate number of predicted Tat-dependent substrates are present. Putative substrates include those...
متن کاملA conserved archaeal pathway for tail-anchored membrane protein insertion.
Eukaryotic tail-anchored (TA) membrane proteins are inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum by a post-translational TRC40 pathway, but no comparable pathway is known in other domains of life. The crystal structure of an archaebacterial TRC40 sequence homolog bound to ADP•AlF(4) (-) reveals characteristic features of eukaryotic TRC40, including a zinc-mediated dimer and a large hydrophobic groov...
متن کاملDNA translocation activity of the multifunctional replication protein ORF904 from the archaeal plasmid pRN1
The replication protein ORF904 from the plasmid pRN1 is a multifunctional enzyme with ATPase-, primase- and DNA polymerase activity. Sequence analysis suggests the presence of at least two conserved domains: an N-terminal prim/pol domain with primase and DNA polymerase activities and a C-terminal superfamily 3 helicase domain with a strong double-stranded DNA dependant ATPase activity. The exac...
متن کاملSizing the Protein Translocation Pathway of Colicin Ia Channels
The bacterial toxin colicin Ia forms voltage-gated channels in planar lipid bilayers. The toxin consists of three domains, with the carboxy-terminal domain (C-domain) responsible for channel formation. The C-domain contributes four membrane-spanning segments and a 68-residue translocated segment to the open channel, whereas the upstream domains and the amino-terminal end of the C-domain stay on...
متن کاملEvolution of the prokaryotic protein translocation complex: a comparison of archaeal and bacterial versions of SecDF.
Protein translocation across the prokaryotic plasma membrane occurs at the translocon, an evolutionarily conserved membrane-embedded proteinaceous complex. Together with the core components SecYE, prokaryotic translocons also contain auxilliary proteins, such as SecDF. Alignment of bacterial and archaeal SecDF protein sequences reveals the presence of a similar number of homologous regions with...
