Journal ArticleDOI
Copper metallothionein of yeast, structure of the gene, and regulation of expression
Tauseef R. Butt,E J Sternberg,Jessica A. Gorman,Philip Clark,Dean H. Hamer,Martin Rosenberg,Stanley T. Crooke +6 more
TL;DR: The yeast copper metallothionein regulatory sequences represent a previously unreported class of yeast promoter that is regulated by copper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of a Candida albicans gene that encodes a novel mechanism for resistance to benomyl and methotrexate.
TL;DR: By site-directed mutagenesis, it was shown that ORF1 encoded both phenotypes, which had no sequence similarity to any known proteins, including β-tubulin, dihydrofolate reductase, and the P-glycoprotein of the multi-drug resistance family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Yeast metallothionein function in metal ion detoxification.
David J. Ecker,Tauseef R. Butt,E J Sternberg,M P Neeper,C Debouck,Jessica A. Gorman,Stanley T. Crooke +6 more
TL;DR: There is significant flexibility in the structural requirements for metallothionein to function in copper detoxification and that yeast metallothsionein is also capable of detoxifying cadmium under conditions of constitutive expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increasing gene expression in yeast by fusion to ubiquitin.
David J. Ecker,Jeffrey M. Stadel,Tauseef R. Butt,J Marsh,B P Monia,D A Powers,Jessica A. Gorman,P E Clark,F Warren,A Shatzman +9 more
TL;DR: The yeast Ub-Xase has also been shown to work in vitro by the processing of a ub-sCD4 fusion protein synthesized in Escherichia coli, which should greatly enhance the utility of yeast for heterologous protein production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterization of a β-tubulin gene from Candida albicans
TL;DR: It is concluded that C. albicans most likely possesses a single beta-tubulin gene, and nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that TUB2 encodes a protein of 449 amino acids with considerable sequence homology to Beta-tubulins isolated from other fungal species.
