RESUMO

The secretion signal of the Caulobacter crescentus S-layer protein (RsaA) was localized to the C-terminal 82 amino acids of the molecule. Protein yield studies showed that 336 or 242 C-terminal residues of RsaA mediated secretion of >50 mg of a cellulase passenger protein per liter to the culture fluids.
