Abstract excerpt
Armadillo (Arm) repeat proteins such as beta-catenin and alpha-karyopherin (importin) are thought to mediate the docking of cargo at membrane-associated cytoskeletal elements. YEB3 encodes an uncharacterized Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein that contains eleven tandem Arm repeats. While YEB3 is nonessential for growth, yeb3delta cells accumulated numerous small vacuoles and are defective in vacuolar inheritance....
