RESUMO
We exploited the conditional-lethal phenotype of secB null mutations to demonstrate that SecB function was required for PrlA-mediated suppression of signal sequence mutations. The results of these experiments provide information about the functions performed and the sequence determinants recognized by each of these components of the protein export machinery of Escherichia coli.

- prlA suppression of defective export of maltose-binding protein in secB mutants of Escherichia coli.
- A signal sequence is not required for protein export in prlA mutants of Escherichia coli.
- Involvement of SecB, a chaperone, in the export of ribose-binding protein.
- Escherichia coli SecB, SecA, and SecY proteins are required for expression and membrane insertion of the bacteriocin release protein, a small lipoprotein.
- The mature portion of Escherichia coli maltose-binding protein (MBP) determines the dependence of MBP on SecB for export.
