Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene VAS1, codes for both cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isozymes of ValRS through alternative transcription and translation, expression of wild-type and mutant enzymes in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information substitution of the AUG initiator of the mitochondrial ValRS isozyme, ATG1 of VAS1, with redundant ACG triplets, mutation of ATG1 to GCG deprived the construct of its mitochondrial activity, redundant ACG triplets could effectively substitute for ATG1 in initiation of the mitochondrial enzyme, while a single ACG triplet could hardly do so Saccharomyces cerevisiae
