Figure 4. Implications for translocation. (a) The surface representation of the TtSecA dimer (gray) showing the cavity formed between the PPXD and C-terminal domains exposing a large number of the hydrophobic residues (yellow) that might constitute a putative pre-protein (red ellipse) binding site. (b) Sequence alignment showing conservation of the hydrophobic residues (yellow boxes) in the cavity.
