Abstract excerpt
We report the study of Kluyveromyces lactis cells expressing a truncated form of KlLSM4, a gene ortholog to LSM4 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae which encodes an essential protein involved in both pre-mRNA splicing and mRNA decapping. We had previously demonstrated that the first 72 amino acids of the K. lactis Lsm4p (KlLsm4Deltap) can restore cell growth in both K. lactis and S. cerevisiae cells not expressing the...
