Abstract excerpt
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gas1 protein is synthesized as a precursor with a hydrophobic extension at the carboxyl terminus which is removed and replaced with an inositol containing glycolipid that anchors the protein to the plasma membrane. We performed saturation mutagenesis on the anchor attachment site (Asn506) and showed that only a subset of amino acids with small side chains could act as substrates for...
