Bacillus subtilis CsaA was previously characterised as a molecular chaperone with export-related activities. In order to elucidate the functionality of CsaA further, interaction with its postulated substrate YvaY was investigated. Similar binding to carrier immobilised mature and preYvaY revealed th...
