Abstract

To determine the mechanism by which enzymes with complex cofactors are exported out of the bacterial cytoplasm by the Tat protein transport system. To use genetics, biochemistry and structural biology to obtain a detailed level of understanding of the composition and mode of operation of the Tat transporter. To ascertain how multisubunit enzymes are assembled prior to their export. To understand the role of the Tat pathway in the physiology of bacteria, in particular Streptomyces coelicolor and Escherichia coli.
