Abstract excerpt
To identify new proteins involved in Mn2+ homeostasis, we isolated Mn(2+)-resistant mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae starting from a calcineurin-deficient, Mn2+ hypersensitive strain (delta cmp1 delta cmp2). The mutations were found to lie in the PMR1 gene, known to encode a "P-type" Ca(2+)-ATPase that transports Ca2+ and Mn2+ from the cytosol to the Golgi apparatus. A second gene, AHP1, was cloned as a...
