a

All vtPA activity values are the averages of three replicate experiments (standard error, <0.5%).

b

The relative cytoplasmic activity for all samples was normalized to the activity measured in the cytoplasm of FÅ113 cells expressing Δss-vtPA from pTrcvtPA-h6.

c

The relative periplasmic activity for all samples was normalized to the activity measured in the periplasm of FÅ113 cells expressing Δss-vtPA from pTrcvtPA-h6.
