Abstract excerpt
Little is known about the enzyme(s) required for the endoproteolytic processing of mammalian Ras proteins. We identified a mouse gene (designated Rce1) that shares sequence homology with a yeast gene (RCE1) implicated in the proteolytic processing of Ras2p. To define the role of Rce1 in mammalian Ras processing, we generated and analyzed Rce1-deficient mice. Rce1 deficiency was lethal late in embryonic...
