Abstract excerpt
Many cellular and viral processes depend on site-specific proteolysis. Here, a genetic system for the identification of such proteases and inhibitors is described. The system utilizes the temperature- sensitive Saccharomyces cerevisiae CDC25-2 mutant strain and exploits the strict requirement of membrane localization of a constitutively active Ras mutant for the complementation of the yeast growth defect at the...
