Structure of the complex of aquifex aeolicus SecYEG and bacillus subtilis SecA
Structural highlights
3dl8 is a 8 chain structure with sequence from Aquifex aeolicus and Bacillus subtilis. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
SECA_BACSU Part of the Sec protein translocase complex. Interacts with the SecYEG preprotein conducting channel. Has a central role in coupling the hydrolysis of ATP to the transfer of proteins into and across the cell membrane, serving as an ATP-driven molecular motor driving the stepwise translocation of polypeptide chains across the membrane (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01382]
