TABLE 2.

Efficiency of stalling of the SecM and FXXYXIWPPP peptides

The peptide sequences shown were inserted into the full-length lacZ gene following the ninth codon. β-Galactosidase activity is shown in Miller units along with the standard deviation. The Ala substitutions in bold are known to prevent stalling in SecM and FxxYxIWPPP.

Stalling peptide LacZ activity
FSTPVWISQAQGIRAGP 8.2 ± 2.0
FSTPVWISQAQGIRAGA 10,812 ± 1,288
SLQKRLFQKYGIWPPPSI 117 ± 14
