IDENTIFICATION OF a AND B TUBULIN IN YEAST
نویسنده
چکیده
The similarity of yeast microtubular protein to the tubulins purified from other eukaryotic organisms has been open to question. This work involves the identification of two yeast proteins that resetile a ands tubulin prepared from other eukaryots in their ability to copolymerite with purified rat brain tubulin and co-migrate with cL and B brain tubulin on a sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide slab gel.

Epothilone and paclitaxel: unexpected differences in promoting the assembly and stabilization of yeast microtubules.
Paclitaxel (Taxol) and the epothilones are antimitotic agents that promote the assembly of mammalian tubulin and stabilization of microtubules. The epothilones competitively inhibit the binding of paclitaxel to mammalian brain tubulin, suggesting that the two types of compounds share a common binding site in tubulin, despite the lack of structural similarities. It is known that paclitaxel does ...
متن کاملIdentification of Novel Temperature-sensitive Lethal Alleles in Essential b-Tubulin and Nonessential a2-Tubulin Genes as Fission Yeast Polarity Mutants
We have screened for temperature-sensitive (ts) fission yeast mutants with altered polarity (alp1–15). Genetic analysis indicates that alp2 is allelic to atb2 (one of two a-tubulin genes) and alp12 to nda3 (the single b-tubulin gene). atb2 is nonessential, and the ts atb2 mutations we have isolated are dominant as expected. We sequenced two alleles of ts atb2 and one allele of ts nda3. In the t...

متن کاملHuman gamma-tubulin functions in fission yeast
gamma-Tubulin is a phylogenetically conserved component of microtubule-organizing centers that is essential for viability and microtubule function. To examine the functional conservation of gamma-tubulin, we have tested the ability of human gamma-tubulin to function in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We have found that expression of a human gamma-tubulin cDNA restores viability and...
