Structure
Pal is a lipoprotein which is anchored in the outer membrane. Synthesised as a precursor of 173 amino acids, it contains a signal sequence including an LVAC motif.
Pal forms a complex with TolB (see TolB)
Function
During translocation, signal peptidase II cleaves the LVAC motif, and the localisation of Pal is dependent on the Lol protein system.
