DESCRIPTION

Also known as YIDC_CYTH3, yidC. Required for the insertion and/or proper folding and/or complex formation of integral membrane proteins into the membrane. Involved in integration of membrane proteins that insert both dependently and independently of the Sec translocase complex, as well as at least some lipoproteins. Aids folding of multispanning membrane proteins. Interacts with the Sec translocase complex via SecD. Specifically interacts with transmembrane segments of nascent integral membrane proteins during membrane integration.
