Protein Moonlighting Revealed by Noncatalytic Phenotypes of Yeast Enzymes.

Abstract excerpt

A single gene can partake in several biological processes, and therefore gene deletions can lead to different-sometimes unexpected-phenotypes. However, it is not always clear whether such pleiotropy reflects the loss of a unique molecular activity involved in different processes or the loss of a multifunctional protein. Here, using Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism as a model, we systematically test the null...
