Abstract excerpt
In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Svl3 and Pam1 proteins work as functional homologues. Loss of their function causes increased levels of chitin deposition in the cell wall and temperature sensitivity, suggesting their involvement in cell wall formation. We found that the N- and C-termini of these proteins have distinctive and critical functions. They contain an N-terminal part that has a probable...
