RMA1, an Arabidopsis thaliana gene whose cDNA suppresses the yeast sec15 mutation, encodes a novel protein with a RING finger motif and a membrane anchor.

Abstract excerpt

To identify molecules that function in the plant secretory pathway, we screened for Arabidopsis thaliana cDNA clones that complement the temperature-sensitive (ts), secretion-deficient sec15 mutation of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. RMA1, one of the genes obtained in this screening, suppressed not only the ts growth of sec15 but also its secretory defect. RMA1 is not a structural homologue of SEC15 but encodes...
