Abstract excerpt
The key gluconeogenic enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) is induced during glucose starvation. After the addition of glucose, inactivated FBPase is selectively targeted to Vid (vacuolar import and degradation) vesicles and then to the vacuole for degradation. To identify proteins involved in this pathway, we screened various libraries for mutants that failed to degrade FBPase. Via these approaches,...
