Lipid Anchoring of Archaeosortase Substrates and Midcell Growth in Haloarchaea
ABSTRACT The archaeal cytoplasmic membrane provides an anchor for many surface proteins. Recently, a novel membrane anchoring mechanism involving a peptidase, archaeosortase A (ArtA), and C-terminal lipid attachment of surface proteins was identified in the model archaeon Haloferax volcanii. ArtA is...
