Protein farnesylation is critical for maintaining normal cell morphology and canavanine resistance in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 7 Jan 2000

Yang W, Urano J, Tamanoi F

Abstract excerpt

Protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) plays important roles in the growth and differentiation of eukaryotic cells. In this paper, we report the identification of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe gene cpp1(+) encoding the beta-subunit of FTase. The predicted amino acid sequence of the cpp1(+) gene product shares significant similarity with FTase beta-subunits from a variety of organisms. S. pombe FTase purified from E....
