Abstract excerpt
As part of a nutrient-responsive signaling pathway, the budding yeast cyclin-CDK complex Pho80-Pho85 phosphorylates the transcription factor Pho4 on five sites and inactivates it. Here, we describe the kinetic reaction between Pho80-Pho85 and Pho4. Through experimentation and computer modeling we have determined that Pho80-Pho85 phosphorylates Pho4 in a semi-processive fashion that results from a balance between...
