Map20, T3SS export signal peptide from Map gene

Map20 is a signal sequence encoding a 20 amino acid long signal peptide derived from the map gene from the Enteropathogenic E. coli strain E22. It is used as an N-terminal tag for a protein to be translocated by the E. coli type-3-secretion system (T3SS). This T3SS signal tag is described by Charpentier & Oswald (2004) to be sufficient to target proteins to E. coli type III secretion pathway. Its short length seemed to be attractive to us because we wanted to minimize folding interference between the signal sequence and the intended protein fused to the signal sequence.
