Participation of acid phospholipids in protein translocation across the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane.
Recent observations confirm the participation of acid phospholipids in protein translocation. The hypothesis proposed coupled protein translocation with transmembrane movement of acid phospholipids, their metabolism as a precursor of cell envelope components and recycling. These factors ensure the unidirectional vector value of the secretion, restoration of the membrane site competent for protein translocation and its self-organization.
