Protein Domain : Cross-wall-targeting lipoprotein motif IPR021197

Type	Conserved_site
Description	The N-terminal YSIRK signal domain targets proteins to the cross-wall, or septum, of dividing Gram-positive bacteria. Lipoprotein signal motifs direct a characteristic N-terminal cleavage and lipid modification for membrane anchoring. This Streptococcal-only signal peptide variant appears to be a hybrid between the two, likely directing protein targeting of nascent surface lipoproteins to the cross-wall. Nearly all members of this family have the characteristic LPXTG cell wall anchor signal at the C terminus.
