The secretory pathway at 50: a golden anniversary for some momentous grains of silver.

abstract：:The auxilin family of J-domain proteins load Hsp70 onto clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) to drive uncoating. In vitro, auxilin function requires its ability to bind clathrin and stimulate Hsp70 ATPase activity via its J-domain. To test these requirements in vivo, we performed a mutational analysis of Swa2p, the yeast a...

abstract：:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, many osmotically inducible genes are regulated by the Sko1p-Ssn6p-Tup1p complex. On osmotic shock, the MAP kinase Hog1p associates with this complex, phosphorylates Sko1p, and converts it into an activator that subsequently recruits Swi/Snf and SAGA complexes. We have found that phospholip...
