Abstract
The Tat system is a recently-discovered bacterial protein export pathway that possesses the remarkable ability of transporting folded polypeptides across the cytoplasmic membrane. Building on our initial success in characterising the Tat system of Escherichia coli we aim to further our molecular understanding of the Tat transporter by (i) genetic analysis, including the use of powerful new genetic selections, and (ii) combined biochemical-genetic approaches to mechanism.
