We report the analysis of two Saccharomyces cerevisiae cyclophilins, Cpr6 and Cpr7, identified by their ability to interact in vivo with the transcriptional regulator Rpd3. Both cyclophilins have an extended carboxy-terminal region containing a three-unit tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) motif and share significant amino acid identity with the mammalian cyclophilin CyP-40. Neither CPR6 nor CPR7 is essential but deletion of CPR7 results in a significant impairment of the rate of cell division. This is the first demonstration that a member of the cyclophilin family is required for normal cell growth.
我们报告了对两种酿酒酵母亲环蛋白Cpr6和Cpr7的分析,它们是通过在体内与转录调节因子Rpd3相互作用的能力而被鉴定出来的。这两种亲环蛋白都有一个延伸的羧基末端区域,其中包含一个由三个单元组成的四肽重复(TPR)基序,并且与哺乳动物亲环蛋白CyP-40有显著的氨基酸同源性。CPR6和CPR7都不是必需的,但CPR7的缺失会导致细胞分裂速率显著受损。这是首次证明亲环蛋白家族的一个成员是正常细胞生长所必需的。
