Purification of component A of Rab geranylgeranyl transferase: possible identity with the choroideremia gene product.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rab geranylgeranyl transferase (GG transferase) from rat brain contains two components, A and B. Component B comprises polypeptides of 60 and 38 kd. Here we report the purification of component A, a single 95 kd polypeptide. The holoenzyme attaches 3H-geranylgeranyl to cysteines in two GTP-binding

Retinal degeneration in choroideremia: deficiency of rab geranylgeranyl transferase.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rab geranylgeranyl transferase (GG transferase) is a two-component enzyme that attaches 20-carbon isoprenoid groups to cysteine residues in Rab proteins, a family of guanosine triphosphate-binding proteins that regulate vesicular traffic. The mutant gene in human choroideremia, an X-linked form of

Molecular characterization of a novel X-linked syndrome involving developmental delay and deafness.

Only registered users can translate articles

X-linked syndromes associated with developmental delay and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) have been characterized at the molecular level, including Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome and Norrie disease. In this study we report on a novel X-linked recessive, congenital syndrome in a family with

Amino- and carboxy-terminal domains of the yeast Rab escort protein are both required for binding of Ypt small G proteins.

Only registered users can translate articles

The Rab escort protein (REP) is an essential component of the heterotrimeric enzyme Rab geranylgeranyl transferase that modifies the carboxy-terminal cysteines of the Ras-like small G proteins belonging to the Rab/Ypt family. Deletions in the human CHM locus, encoding one of the two REPs known in

Dual chemical probes enable quantitative system-wide analysis of protein prenylation and prenylation dynamics.

Only registered users can translate articles

Post-translational farnesylation or geranylgeranylation at a C-terminal cysteine residue regulates the localization and function of over 100 proteins, including the Ras isoforms, and is a therapeutic target in diseases including cancer and infection. Here, we report global and selective profiling of
