The Sec complex forms the core of a conserved machinery coordinating the passage of proteins across or into biological membranes. The bacterial complex SecYEG interacts with the ATPase SecA or translating ribosomes to translocate secretory and membrane proteins accordingly. A truncated preprotein competes with the physiological full-length substrate and primes the protein-channel complex for transport. We have employed electron cryomicroscopy of two-dimensional crystals to determine the structure of the complex unlocked by the preprotein. Its visualization in the native environment of the membrane preserves the active arrangement of SecYEG dimers, in which only one of the two channels is occupied by the polypeptide substrate. The signal sequence could be identified along with the corresponding conformational changes in SecY, including relocation of transmembrane segments 2b and 7 as well as the plug, which presumably then promote channel opening. Therefore, we propose that the structure describes the translocon unlocked by preprotein and poised for protein translocation. ► Structure determination of the membrane-bound SecYEG complex unlocked by preprotein ► The SecYEG dimer binds only one substrate polypeptide ► Signal sequence binds at the interface between SecYEG and the lipid bilayer ► The association transmits a conformational change enabling channel opening A major outstanding question in the protein translocation field lies in the nature of the active protein channel upon engagement with its substrate. Hizlan et al. describe the structure of the ubiquitous Sec complex associated with a bone fide mimic of a presecretory protein in the native environment of the membrane. The results reveal how the binding of the signal sequence unlocks the Sec complex prior to channel opening and preprotein transport.
