Influence of N-terminal sequence variation on the sorting of major adenylate kinase to the mitochondrial intermembrane space in yeast.
Major adenylate kinase (Aky2p) from yeast has no cleavable presequence and occurs in identical form in the mitochondrial intermembrane space (6-8%) and in the cytoplasm (approx. 90%). To identify the signal(s) on Aky2p that might be required for mitochondrial import, the N-terminal region was examined. The N-terminus of Aky2p can guide at least two cytoplasmic passengers, dihydrofolate reductas...
متن کاملIdentification of a conserved N-terminal sequence involved in transmembrane signal transduction in EnvZ.
To determine whether N-terminal sequences are involved in the transmembrane signaling mechanism of EnvZ, the nucleotide sequences of envZ genes from several enteric bacteria were determined. Comparative analysis revealed that the amino acid sequence between Pro41 and Glu53 was highly conserved. To further analyze the role of the conserved sequence, envZ of Escherichia coli was subjected to rand...
متن کامل[N-terminal sequence of a porphobilinogen synthase].
The N-terminal sequence of porphobilinogen-synthase (EC 4.2.1.24) from bovine liver up to position 44 is given. After tryptic hydrolysis two N-terminal peptides with identical amino acid composition were isolated in the ratio 1:1. One peptide was blocked whereas the other one started with methionine and showed the same primary structure which had been estimated by automatic degradation of the e...
متن کاملRole of Mitochondria in Ataxia-Telangiectasia: Investigation of Mitochondrial Deletions and Haplogroups
Ataxia-Telangiectasia (AT) is a rare human neurodegenerative autosomal recessive multisystem disease that is characterized by a wide range of features including, progressive cerebellar ataxia with onset during infancy, occulocutaneous telangiectasia, susceptibility to neoplasia, occulomotor disturbances, chromosomal instability and growth and developmental abnormalities. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDN...
متن کاملCharacterization of kinectin, a kinesin-binding protein: primary sequence and N-terminal topogenic signal analysis.
Kinectin is a kinesin-binding protein (Toyoshima et al., 1992) that is required for kinesin-based motility (Kumar et al., 1995). A kinectin cDNA clone containing a 4.7-kilobase insert was isolated from an embryonic chick brain cDNA library by immunoscreening with a panel of monoclonal antibodies. The cDNA contained an open reading frame of 1364 amino acids encoding a protein of 156 kDa. A bacte...
