Experimental Verification for 1tf5 » Translocation ATPase SecA
Interacts with lipid bilayers in monomeric state (1tf2, 1tf5) and undergoes significant conformational changes (Osborne et al. 2004). The structure of dimer (1m74, 1m6n) is different. More data on iteractions of SecA from E.coli with membranes and SecY: van Dalen and de Kruijff (2004), Breukink et al. (1992), Dapic and Oliver (2000).

Comments on 1tf5 » Translocation ATPase SecA
Part of the prokaryotic protein translocation apparatus which comprise secA, secB, secD, secE, secF, secG and secY. SecA has a central role in coupling the hydrolysis of ATP to the transfer of pre-secretory proteins across the membrane.
