Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
DNA and amino acid sequence determination and analysis, genetic organization and clustering of SAM-dependent methyltransferase sequences, phylogenetic tree, recombinant enzyme functional expression in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain that is engineered to produce glucosylceramides suitable as a substrate for C9-methylation. C9-methylated sphingolipids are detected in the transformed strain expressing the candidate from Pichia pastoris, demonstrating its function as a sphingolipid C9-methyltransferase Komagataella pastoris

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
