概要 The secA gene product mediates protein translocation across the cytoplasmic membrane in Escherichia coli. We have cloned a gene homologous to secA from the genome of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus PCC7942. The deduced amino acid sequence, 948 amino acids long, shows 43% homology with that of the E. coli secA and 47-48% homology with those of the algal plastid secA genes. Upon subcellular fractionation, the cyanobacterial SecA protein was mainly found as soluble homodimer in the cytosol, but the remaining small but distinct fraction was associated with both the cytoplasmic and thylakoid membranes. The SecA protein likely participates in protein translocation across both the cytoplasmic and thylakoid membranes in cyanobacterial cells. (C) 1994 Academic Press, Inc.
