Amphipathic, alpha-helical, leader sequences, analogous to those that direct nuclear-encoded eukaryotic proteins into mitochondria, have been found in one and only one class of bacterial integral membrane proteins. These bacterial proteins are the sugar permeases of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system. The amphipathic leader sequence in each of these proteins is terminated by a helix breaker, either a prolyl residue or 2 adjacent glycyl residues. Preliminary evidence suggests that these leader sequences function to target the proteins to the envelope fraction of the prokaryotic cell during their biosynthesis.
