Abstract	Export-specific chaperone SecB and translocational ATPase SecA catalyze the cytoplasmic steps of Sec-dependent secretion in Escherichia coli. Their effects on secretion of periplasmic alkaline phosphatase (PhoA) were shown to depend on the N-terminal region of the mature PhoA sequence contained in the PhoA precursor. Amino acid substitutions in the vicinity of the signal peptide (positions +2, +3) not only dramatically inhibited secretion, but also reduced its dependence on SecB and SecA. Immunoprecipitation reported their impaired binding with mutant prePhoA. The results testified that SecB and SecA interact with the mature PhoA region located close to the signal peptide in prePhoA.
