The mRNA for the lipoprotein of the E. coli outer membrane coded for a putative precursor, prolipoprotein, which has 20 additional amino acid residues extending from the amino terminus of the lipoprotein. Using the prolipoprotein synthesized in an E. coli cell-free system directed by purified mRNA for the lipoprotein, the complete amino acid sequence of the amino-terminal precursor region was as follows: .**GRAPHIC**. The prolipoprotein that accumulates in toluene-treated cells has the same sequence. The significance of the amino acid sequence is discussed in terms of the mechanism of biosynthesis and assembly of the lipoprotein in the E. coli outer membrane.
