The bacterial homolog of the <SRP54> <protein>, containing a <GTPase> involved in cotranslational membrane targeting.
Its signal-recognition and <GTPase> functions connect a nascent hydrophobic segment with the bacterial SRP <receptor> <FtsY>. The pathway directs selected translating <ribosomes> toward the membrane before the complete <protein> has been synthesized. <Molecular Biology of the Cell, 4th edition by Bruce Alberts and others>[Chapters 3, 6 and 15, protein function, translation and cell signalling]{ref}
