Ligands: , Related: 1nl3 Gene: SECA1 OR SECA OR RV3240C ("Bacillus tuberculosis" (Zopf 1883) Klein 1884) Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum Function [SECA1_MYCTU] Part of the Sec protein translocase complex. Interacts with the SecYEG preprotein conducting channel. Has a central role in coupling the hydrolysis of ATP to the transfer of precursor proteins, serving as an ATP-driven molecular motor driving the stepwise translocation of polypeptide chains across the membrane (By similarity).

Publication Abstract from PubMed In bacteria, the majority of exported proteins are translocated by the Sec system, which recognizes the signal sequence of a preprotein and uses ATP and the proton motive force to mediate protein translocation across the cytoplasmic membrane. SecA is an essential protein component of this system, containing the molecular motor that facilitates translocation. Here we report the three-dimensional structure of the SecA protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Each subunit of the homodimer contains a "motor" domain and a translocation domain. The structure predicts that SecA can interact with the SecYEG pore and function as a molecular ratchet that uses ATP hydrolysis for physical movement of the preprotein. Knowledge of this structure provides a framework for further elucidation of the translocation process.
