Inactivation of protein translocation by cold-sensitive mutations in the yajC-secDF operon.

abstract：:Analysis of the genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis allowed the identification of two genes whose protein products showed 33 and 34% identity with those of sigV and yrhM of Bacillus subtilis, respectively. These genes, named sigV and rsiV, are predicted to encode members of the extracytoplasmic function subfamily...
