Abstract excerpt
SUN proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been defined on the basis of high homologies in their C-terminal domain. Recently, two of these four proteins were shown to be involved in cell wall morphogenesis (Mouassite et al., 2000a). In the present study, we have isolated WMSU1 (Accession No. AF418983), a new SUN-related gene, from W. saturnus var. mrakii MUCL 41968. Sequencing of the gene revealed an open...
