Abstract excerpt
The Erg28p protein is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum, where it acts as a scaffold to tether the C-4 demethylase complex involved in the sterol biosynthesis pathway of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, due to the challenges involved in characterizing the interactions of membrane proteins, the precise region of Erg28p that is responsible for the assembly of this enzyme complex remains unknown. To address...
