Abstract excerpt
One of the essential protein substrates of geranylgeranyl transferase type I in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a rho-type GTPase, Rho1p, which is a regulatory subunit of 1, 3-beta-glucan synthase. Previous studies have indicated that modification of Rho1p is significantly reduced in a mutant of the beta subunit of geranylgeranyl transferase type I called cal1-1. Here we present genetic and...
