Abstract excerpt

The hypusine-containing protein (Hypp) is highly conserved in evolution, from man to archaebacteria, but is not found in eubacteria. Hypp is essential for the viability for yeast cells, where two forms are encoded by the genes HYP1 and HYP2. The hypusine-containing protein Hyp2p, encoded by the H...
