Synonyms
Protein-export protein secB, secB, b3609, JW3584.
Introduction
SecB, a significant chaperone that takes part in protein export, binds various ligands rapidly with high affinity and low specificity. SecB plays an important role during protein export through the general secretory pathway by modulating the partitioning of precursors between folding or aggregation and delivery to the membrane-bound translocation apparatus. SecB has the potential to take part in functions outside of export acting as a universal nonspecific chaperone to provide buffering capacity of the nonnative state of proteins in the cytosolic pool.
Description
Recombinant E.Coli SecB produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 155 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17.2 kDa. SecB was over-expressed in E. coli and purified by conventional chromatography.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
