Roles of the VMA3 gene product, subunit c of the vacuolar membrane H(+)-ATPase on vacuolar acidification and protein transport. A study with VMA3-disrupted mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract excerpt

VMA3, a structure gene of the vacuolar membrane H(+)-ATPase subunit c of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has been cloned and characterized. The VMA3 gene encodes a hydrophobic polypeptide with 160 amino acids as reported previously by Nelson and Nelson (Nelson, H., and Nelson, N. (1989) FEBS Lett. 247, 147-153). Peptide sequence analysis indicated that the VMA3 gene product lacks N-terminal methionine and does not have...
