Abstract：
:In prokaryotes, a large share of the proteins are secreted from the cell through a process that requires their translocation across the cytoplasmic membrane. This process is mediated by the universally conserved Sec system with homologues in the endoplasmic reticulum and thylakoid membranes of eukaryotes. The Sec system also facilitates the membrane insertion of integral membrane proteins, an essential step along their folding pathway. In bacteria, the Sec system consists of the protein-conducting channel (SecYEG) that associates with soluble components, such as the motor protein SecA or translating ribosomes, and with integral membrane proteins, such as the heterotrimeric complex termed SecDFyajC and the YidC insertase. Over the past three decades, biochemical and structural studies have provided a comprehensive view of protein translocation, but the exact mechanistic details of this process remain to be resolved. For a number of other biomolecular systems, single-molecule biophysical analysis has efficiently complemented the conventional biochemical studies conducted in bulk, with high-sensitivity measurements probing the structure and dynamics of individual molecules in vitro and in vivo. Here, we review recent advances in studies of protein translocation employing single-molecule techniques with the aim of resolving molecular mechanisms, thereby providing a new and detailed view of the process.
