A Schizosaccharomyces pombe homologue, Psi, was cloned from Schizosaccharomyces pombe cDNA library. Deduced amino acid sequence of the cDNA has 55% sequence homology with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sis1 protein and contains the structural features of a family of DnaJ proteins. This homology suggests Psi protein may be implicated in the initiation of translation as like Sis1 function of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
从粟酒裂殖酵母cDNA文库中克隆出了粟酒裂殖酵母的一个同源物Psi。该cDNA推导的氨基酸序列与酿酒酵母Sis1蛋白有55%的序列同源性,并含有DnaJ蛋白家族的结构特征。这种同源性表明,Psi蛋白可能像酿酒酵母的Sis1蛋白一样参与翻译起始过程。
