Abstract excerpt
Pyruvate carboxylase (Pyc1p) has multiple functions in methylotrophic yeast species. Besides its function as an enzyme, Pyc1p is required for assembly of peroxisomal alcohol oxidase (AO). Hence, Pyc1p-deficient cells share aspartate auxotrophy (Asp-) with a defect in growth on methanol as sole carbon source (Mut-). To identify regions in Hansenula polymorpha Pyc1p that are required for the function of HpPyc1p in...
