Abstract excerpt

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae YDJ1 protein (YDJ1p) contains a C-terminal "CaaX box" motif common to proteins that are modified by prenylation. In the present study we show that YDJ1p is a specific substrate for both yeast and mammalian protein farnesyltransferase enzymes in vitro. A mutant form of...
