The export of fimbrial subunits was found to be diminished at the restrictive temperature in a strain bearing a secA(Ts) mutation. Likewise, export was inhibited in a strain harboring a malE-lacZ protein fusion upon induction of hybrid protein synthesis. Both conditions resulted in the accumulation of a precursor protein ca. 2,000 daltons larger than the mature fimbrial subunit.
在携带secA(Ts)突变的菌株中,发现菌毛亚基的输出在限制温度下减少。同样,在诱导杂交蛋白合成后,含有malE-lacZ蛋白融合体的菌株中输出受到抑制。这两种情况都导致一种前体蛋白积累,该前体蛋白比成熟菌毛亚基大约2000道尔顿。
