2.A.64.2.1
The chloroplast Tat translocase (cpTatC/Hcf106/Tha4) (Gérard and Cline, 2007).  The precursor mature domain of the substrate protein interacts directly with Tha4 (Pal et al. 2012).  Hcf106 is predicted to contain a single amino terminal transmembrane domain followed by a Pro-Gly hinge, a predicted amphipathic alpha-helix (APH), and a loosely structured carboxy terminus.  The amphipathic α-helix interacts with the bilayer (Zhang et al., 2013a; Zhang et al. 2013b).  TatA has structural plasticity and a capability to adapt to local environments (Pettersson et al. 2018).
