Abstract
To date, different pathways, denominated type I, type II, type III, etc have been described in Gram-negative bacteria for the translocation of proteins across the two membranes of the cell envelope (Pugsley et al., 1997; Hueck, 1998; Thanassi and Hultgren, 2000; Christie and Vogel, 2000). In addition these pathways, other mechanisms of protein translocation across the cell envelope have been described (see other chapters), which have not been given a type number or for which the type number is still on debate. Some secretion pathways, for instance the type II pathway, are dependent of the so-called general secretory pathway (GSP), whereas other pathways, for instance the type I and type III secretion systems, are independent of the general secretory pathway (GSP, Pugsley, 1993; Pugsley et al., 1997). These latter pathways do not involve amino-terminal processing of the secreted proteins. Furthermore, protein secretion via the latter pathways occurs by a one-step mechanism through a transenvelope channel without the occurrence of periplasmic intermediates. In this chapter the general features of type I protein secretion pathways will be discussed and the mechanism of secretion of α-hemolysin by E. coli will be described in detail.
