ftsY
The ftsY gene, which encodes the Signal Recognition Particle Receptor (SRP Receptor for brevity), plays a pivotal role in protein synthesis and secretion. Acting as the receptor for Signal Recognition Particles (SRPs), it participates in recognizing the N-terminal signal sequences of newly synthesized proteins on ribosomes and directs these proteins to their correct locations within the cell. Through its interaction with SRPs, the SRP Receptor forms an SRP-Receptor complex. This complex is capable of recognizing and binding to nascent peptide chains containing signal sequences, thereby pausing the translation process in ribosomes and transporting the nascent peptide chains to target membranes. This facilitates the transmembrane transport and localization of proteins.
