Regulation of lysine and threonine synthesis.
G Galili - The Plant Cell, 1995 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Human and monogastric animals cannot synthesize 10 out of the 20 amino acids and
therefore need to obtain these from their diet. Among the essential amino acids, lysine and …

The import receptor for the peroxisomal targeting signal 2 (PTS2) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is encoded by the PAS7 gene.
The import of peroxisomal matrix proteins is dependent on one of two targeting signals,
PTS1 and PTS2. We demonstrate in vivo that not only the import of thiolase but also that of a …
