The soluble cytoplasmic ATPase motor protein SecA powers protein transport across the Escherichia coli inner membrane via the SecYEG translocon. Although dimeric in solution, SecA associates monomerically with SecYEG during secretion according to several crystallographic and cryo-EM structural studies. The steps SecA follows from its dimeric cytoplasmic state to its active SecYEG monomeric state are largely unknown. We have previously shown that dimeric SecA in solution dissociates into monomers upon electrostatic binding to negatively charged lipid vesicles formed from E. coli lipids. Here we address the question of the disposition of SecA on the membrane prior to binding to membrane embedded SecYEG. We mutated to cysteine, one at a time, 25 surface-exposed residues of a Cys-free SecA. To each of these we covalently linked the polarity-sensitive fluorophore NBD whose intensity and fluorescence wavelength-shift change upon vesicle binding report on the the local membrane polarity. We established from these measurements the disposition of SecA bound to the membrane in the absence of SecYEG. Our results confirmed that SecA is anchored in the membrane interface primarily by the positive charges of the N-terminus domain. But we found that a region of the nucleotide binding domain II is also important for binding. Both domains are rich in positively charged residues, consistent with electrostatic interactions playing the major role in membrane binding. Selective replacement of positively charged residues in these domains with alanine resulted in weaker binding to the membrane, which allowed us to quantitate the relative importance of the domains in stabilizing SecA on membranes. Fluorescence quenchers inside the vesicles had little effect on NBD fluorescence, indicating that SecA does not penetrate significantly across the membrane. Overall, the topology of SecA on the membrane is consistent with the conformation of SecA observed in crystallographic and cryo-EM structures of SecA-SecYEG complexes, suggesting that SecA can switch between the membrane-associated and the translocon-associated states without significant changes in conformation.
