Protein
Sec-independent protein translocase protein TatCd
Organism
Bacillus subtilis (strain 168)
Function
Part of the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) system that transports large folded proteins containing a characteristic twin-arginine motif in their signal peptide across membranes. Required for PhoD secretion. TatCd promotes membrane localization of TatAd via domain specific interactions. TatCd is required for stabile production of TatAd as well as for its maintenance.
Similarity
Belongs to the TatC family.
