title: Topology of LcnD, a protein implicated in the transport of bacteriocins from Lactococcus lactis.
abstract: Four in-frame translational fusions to both the reporter proteins beta-galactosidase and alkaline phosphatase support a topological model of LcnD, a protein implicated in the transport of several bacteriocins from Lactococcus lactis, in which the N-terminal part is located intracellularly and one transmembrane helix spans the cytoplasmic membrane.
