Abstract excerpt
Using forward genetics, we revealed that the signal peptide peptidase (SPP) SppA, an aspartyl protease involved in regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP), is essential for hypoxia adaptation in Aspergillus nidulans, as well as hypoxia-sensitive mutant alleles of a sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) srbA and the Dsc ubiquitin E3 ligase complex dscA-E. Both null and dead activity [D337A] mutants...
