Abstract excerpt
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae essential gene YNL158w/PGA1 encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized membrane protein. We constructed temperature-sensitive alleles of PGA1 by error-prone polymerase chain reaction mutagenesis to explore its biological role. Pulse-chase experiments revealed that the pga1(ts) mutants accumulated the ER-form precursor of Gas1 protein at the restrictive temperature. Transport of...
