Abstract excerpt
The Aspergillus nidulans pH-responsive transcription factor PacC is modulated by limited, two-step proteolysis. The first, pH-regulated cleavage occurs in the 24-residue highly conserved "signaling protease box" in response to the alkaline pH signal. This is transduced by the Pal signaling pathway, containing the predicted calpain-like cysteine protease and likely signaling protease, PalB. In this work, we...
