Abstract excerpt
We have identified an important functional region of the yeast Arf1 activator Gea2p upstream of the catalytic Sec7 domain and characterized a set of temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants with amino acid substitutions in this region. These gea2-ts mutants block or slow transport of proteins traversing the secretory pathway at exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the early Golgi, and accumulate both ER and...
