Abstract excerpt
Deletion of the SLT2 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which codes for a homologue of MAP (mitogen-activated) protein kinases, causes an autolytic lethal phenotype in cells grown at 37 degrees C. The gene encodes domains characteristic of protein kinases, which include a lysine (at position 54) that lies 19 residues from a glycine-rich cluster, considered to be the putative ATP binding site. The ability of three...
