Amino acids Thr56 and Thr58 are not essential for elongation factor 2 function in yeast.

The FEBS journal - 1 Oct 2007

Bartish Galyna, Moradi Hossein, Nygård Odd

Abstract excerpt

Yeast elongation factor 2 is an essential protein that contains two highly conserved threonine residues, T56 and T58, that could potentially be phosphorylated by the Rck2 kinase in response to environmental stress. The importance of residues T56 and T58 for elongation factor 2 function in yeast was studied using site directed mutagenesis and functional complementation. Mutations T56D, T56G, T56K, T56N and T56V...
