Much is known about the structure, function, and stability of the SecA motor ATPase that powers the secretion of periplasmic proteins across the inner membrane ofEscherichia coli. Most studies of SecA are carried out in buffered sodium or potassium chloride salt solutions. However, the principal intracellular salt ofE. coliis potassium glutamate (KGlu), which is known to stabilize folded proteins and protein‐nucleic acid complexes. Here we report that KGlu stabilizes SecA, including its dimeric state, and increases its ATPase activity, suggesting that SecA is likely fully folded, stable, and activein vivoat 37°C. Furthermore, KGlu also stabilizes a precursor form of the secreted maltose‐binding protein.
