Abstract excerpt
The TPR (tetratricopeptide repeat) family became widespread during evolution, having been found from bacteria to mammals. By means of restriction enzyme-mediated integration, we have identified a Dictyostelium gene (trfA) highly homologous to a Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene encoding a TPR protein, Ssn6 (Cyc8), which functions as a global transcriptional repressor for diverse genes. The deduced amino acid sequence...
