The twin-arginine translocation (Tat) protein export system is present in the cytoplasmic
membranes of most bacteria and archaea and has the highly unusual property of …

Heme-containing peroxidases secreted by fungi are a fascinating group of biocatalysts with
various ecological and biotechnological implications. For example, they are involved in the …

In bacteria, two major pathways exist to secrete proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane.
The general Secretion route, termed Sec-pathway, catalyzes the transmembrane …

Iron is a versatile redox-active catalyst and a required cofactor within a diverse array of
biological processes. To almost all organisms, iron is both essential and potentially toxic …

Background Proteins carrying twin-arginine (Tat) signal peptides are exported into the
periplasmic compartment or extracellular environment independently of the classical Sec …

DyP peroxidases comprise a novel superfamily of heme-containing peroxidases, which is
unrelated to the superfamilies of plant and animal peroxidases. These enzymes have so far …

The twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway is responsible for the export of folded proteins
across the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria. Substrates for the Tat pathway include redox …

Abstract Signal peptidase I (SPase I) is critical for the release of translocated preproteins
from the membrane as they are transported from a cytoplasmic site of synthesis to …

Bacillus subtilis, belonging to the type species of Bacillus, is a type of soil-derived, low% G+
C, endospore-forming Gram-positive bacterium. After the discovery of B. subtilis 168 that …

The gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus is a frequent component of the human
microbial flora that can turn into a dangerous pathogen. As such, this organism is capable of …
