Abstract excerpt

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins are essential for normal cellular morphogenesis and have an additional role in mediating cross-linking of glycoproteins to cell wall glucan in yeast cells. Although many GPI-anchored proteins have been characterized in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, none have been reported for well-characterized GPI-anchored proteins in Schizosaccharomyces pombe to date. Among the...
