The trace element zinc is required for proper functioning of a large number of proteins,
including various enzymes. However, most zinc-containing proteins are transcription factors …

Publisher Summary The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a very suitable organism for
genetic analysis and now its genome has been completely sequenced; deletion mutants for …

Abstract Protein S-persulfidation (P-SSH) is recognized as a common posttranslational
modification. It occurs under basal conditions and is often observed to be elevated under …

Calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCCs) are major regulators of sensory transduction,
epithelial secretion, and smooth muscle contraction. Other crucial roles of CaCCs include …

Heterologous markers are important tools required for the molecular dissection of gene
function in many organisms, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Moreover, the presence …

The metabolic network in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was reconstructed using
currently available genomic, biochemical, and physiological information. The metabolic …

The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a model system for investigating biological
processes. Cellular events are known to be dysregulated due to shifts in carbon sources …

For vertebrate olfactory signal transduction, a calcium-activated chloride conductance
serves as a major amplification step. However, the molecular identity of the olfactory calcium …

Asymmetric localization of proteins plays a key role in many cellular processes, including
cell polarity and cell fate determination. Using DNA microarray analysis, we identified a …

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mothers and daughters have distinct fates. We show that
Cbk1 kinase and its interacting protein Mob2 regulate this asymmetry by inducing daughter …
