Glycine acylation and trafficking of a new class of bacterial lipoprotein by a composite secretion system

Glycine acylation and trafficking of a new class of bacterial lipoprotein by a composite secretion system

Protein acylation is critical for many cellular functions across all domains of life. In bacteria, lipoproteins have important roles in virulence and are targets for the development of antimicrobials and vaccines. Bacterial lipoproteins are secreted from the cytosol via the Sec pathway and acylated...
