TolQ
From Proteopedia
TolQ is a polytopic protein located in the inner (cytoplasmic) membrane. [1] It contains approximately 230 amino acids and is important in the maintenance of the bacterial envelope integrity as well as the import of filamentous bacteriophage and group A colicins. [2]
Structure
There are three membrane spanning segments in TolQ. TM1 is connected to TM2 via a large cytoplasmic loop, with the N-terminal ending in the periplasm.
