Abstract excerpt
Tyr-phosphorylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential in controlling the activity of MAP kinase regulating mating, pseudohyphal growth, and cell wall biosynthesis. Yeast serves as a model system for studying the biological function of many protein kinases and PTPs. Two LMW-PTP from yeast have been cloned, namely, Ltp1 from S. cerevisiae and Stp1 from Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The sequences of both enzymes...
