type VII secretion protein EccE
EccE is a family of largely Gram-positive bacterial transmembrane componenets of the type VII secretion system characterised in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, systems ESX1-5. Translocation of virulent peptides through the membranes is thought to be mediated via a complex that includes EccB, EccC, EccD, EccE, and MycP [1,2]. EccB, EccC, EccD, and EccE form a stable complex in the mycobacterial cell envelope [3]. [1]. 22140496.

This model represents the transmembrane protein EccB of the actinobacterial flavor of type VII secretion systems. Species such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis have several instances of this system per genome, designated EccE1, EccE2, etc. This model represents a conserved core region, and many members have 200 or more additional C-terminal residues.
