Characterization of a vacuolar protease in Neurospora crassa and the use of gene RIPing to generate protease-deficient strains.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 6 Sept 1996

Vázquez-Laslop N, Tenney K, Bowman B J

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated a gene from Neurospora crassa that appears to encode a pepstatin-sensitive protease found both in membranes and in soluble contents of vacuoles. The gene contains two introns and encodes a 396-residue protein with a molecular mass of 42,900 Da. Because of the similarity of the protein to proteinase A in Saccharomyces cerevisiae the gene has been named pep-4. Strains with mutations in the pep-4...
