Publication Abstract from PubMed
SecB is a bacterial molecular chaperone involved in mediating translocation of newly synthesized polypeptides across the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria. The crystal structure of SecB from Haemophilus influenzae shows that the molecule is a tetramer organized as a dimer of dimers. Two long channels run along the side of the molecule. These are bounded by flexible loops and lined with conserved hydrophobic amino acids, which define a suitable environment for binding non-native polypeptides. The structure also reveals an acidic region on the top surface of the molecule, several residues of which have been implicated in binding to SecA, its downstream target.
