Membrane Insertion of the M13 Minor Coat Protein G3p Is Dependent on YidC and the SecAYEG Translocase

The minor coat protein G3p of bacteriophage M13 is the key component for the host interaction of this virus and binds to <i>Escherichia coli</i> at the tip of the F pili. As we show here, during the biosynthesis of G3p as a preprotein, the signal sequence interacts primarily with SecY, w...
