Term Information

Accession
GO:0043952
Name
protein transport by the Sec complex
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
protein secretion by the Sec complex, protein translocation by the Sec complex
Alternate IDs

Definition
The process in which unfolded proteins are transported across the cytoplasmic membrane in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by the Sec complex, in a process involving proteolytic cleavage of an N-terminal signal peptide. Source: GOC:pamgo_curators
Comment
Note that this term represents an activity and not a cellular structure. Consider also annotating to the cellular structure term 'cell envelope Sec protein transport complex ; GO:0031522'. For proteins involved in bacterial type II secretion across the outer membrane, consider annotating to 'protein secretion by the type II secretion system ; GO:0015628'. For proteins involved in Sec-complex dependent translocation into the eukaryotic endoplasmic reticulum, consider annotating to 'SRP-dependent cotranslational protein targeting to membrane, translocation ; GO:0006616'. Note that this term is used for annotation of proteins that compose the transport complex but not the proteins being transported.
