The Dictyostelium LvsA protein is localized on the contractile vacuole and is required for osmoregulation.

Traffic (Copenhagen, Denmark) - 1 Jan 2002

Gerald Noel J, Siano Michael, De Lozanne Arturo

Abstract excerpt

LvsA is a Dictyostelium protein that is essential for cytokinesis and that is related to the mammalian beige/LYST family of proteins. To better understand the function of this novel protein family we tagged LvsA with GFP using recombination techniques. GFP-LvsA is primarily associated with the me...
