Genetic complementation in yeast reveals functional similarities between the catalytic subunits of mammalian signal peptidase complex.
Type I signal peptidases (SPs) comprise a family of structurally related enzymes that cleave signal peptides from precursor proteins following their transport out of the cytoplasmic space in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. One such enzyme, the mitochondrial inner membrane peptidase, has two catalytic subunits, which recognize distinct cleavage site motifs in their signal peptide substrates. T...
متن کاملTwo subunits of the canine signal peptidase complex are homologous to yeast SEC11 protein.
Canine microsomal signal peptidase activity was previously isolated as a complex of five subunits (25, 22/23, 21, 18, and 12 kDa). Two of the signal peptidase complex (SPC) subunits (23/23 and 21 kDa) have been cloned and sequenced. One of these, the 21-kDa subunit, was observed to be a mammalian homolog of SEC11 protein (Sec11p) (Greenburg, G., Shelness, G. S., and Blobel, G. (1989) J. Biol. C...
متن کاملIdentification of mammalian Mediator subunits with similarities to yeast Mediator subunits Srb5, Srb6, Med11, and Rox3.
The Mediator is a multiprotein coactivator required for activation of RNA polymerase II transcription by DNA binding transactivators. We recently identified a mammalian homologue of yeast Mediator subunit Med8 and partially purified a Med8-containing Mediator complex from rat liver nuclei (Brower, C. S., Sato, S., Tomomori-Sato, C., Kamura, T., Pause, A., Stearman, R., Klausner, R. D., Malik, S...
متن کاملYeast Ste23p shares functional similarities with mammalian insulin-degrading enzymes.
The S. cerevisiae genome encodes two M16A enzymes: Axl1p and Ste23p. Of the two, Ste23p shares significantly higher sequence identity with M16A enzymes from other species, including mammalian insulin-degrading enzymes (IDEs). In this study, recombinant Ste23p and R. norvegicus IDE (RnIDE) were isolated from E. coli, and their enzymatic properties compared. Ste23p was found to cleave established...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
