... other Pex11 protein family members are fungal-specific innovations. Functional characterization of the in-silico -predicted Pex11 protein family members of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica , i.e. Pex11p, Pex11Cp and Pex11/25p, demonstrated that Pex11Cp and Pex11/25p have a role in the regulation...

... its interaction with Pex14p, a component of the peroxisomal matrix protein import docking complex. Here we show that cells of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica deleted for the gene encoding the homologue of Dyn2p are impaired in peroxisome function and biogenesis. These cells exhibit compromised growth...

... yeast Yarrowia lipolytica has only one such enzyme, encoded by the NDH2 gene and located on the external face of the mitochondrial inner membrane. In sharp contrast to ndh2 deletions, deficiencies in nuclear genes for central subunits of proton pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductases (complex I...

...) in the obligate aerobic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica . Cells carrying a deletion of YLNDH2 were fully viable; full inhibition by piericidin A indicated that complex I activity was the sole NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase activity left in the deletion strains. Studies with intact mitochondria revealed that NDH2 in Y...

... of the structure and function of Sec61p we have cloned homologues from both Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Yarrowia lipolytica . The S. pombe gene comprises six exons encoding a 479 residue protein which we have immunolocalised to the endoplasmic reticulum. Sequence comparisons reveal that S. pombe Sec61p is 58.6...
