Abstract excerpt
The molecular dissection of protein kinase C (PKC) action has been based in part on time-consuming functional assays such as the mouse skin model for testing the tumor promoter activity of phorbol esters and related PKC activators. To help overcome the limitations imposed by the complexity of such assays, we developed the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as an alternative, rapid, and simple experimental system....
