Protein secretion in gram-negative bacteria. The extracellular metalloprotease B from Erwinia chrysanthemi contains a C-terminal secretion signal analogous to that of Escherichia coli alpha-hemolysin.

The secretion signal of extracellular metalloprotease B that is secreted without a signal peptide by the Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacterium Erwinia chrysanthemi is shown by deletion and gene fusion analyses to be located within the last 40 C-terminal amino acids. Secretion of a peptide containing only this region of the protease requires the same three secretion factors (PrtD, PrtE, and PrtF) that were previously shown to be required for the secretion of the full-length protease. This secretion signal can also be recognized, albeit inefficiently, by the analogous secretion machinery of alpha-hemolysin, another protein with a C-terminal secretion signal that is secreted by some strains of the Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli. The secretion signal was fused to an internal 200-amino acid fragment from the sequence of the cytoplasmic protein amylomaltase to promote its specific secretion by the protease secretion pathway. Almost exactly the same sequence as that identified as the protease B secretion signal was also found at the C terminus of metalloprotease C that is also secreted by E. chrysanthemi.
