Species-specific protein-protein interactions govern the humanization of the 20S proteasome in yeast

Author(s): Sultana S; Abdullah M; Li J; Hochstrasser M; Kachroo AH;

Yeast and humans share thousands of genes despite a billion years of evolutionary divergence. While many human genes can functionally replace their yeast counterparts, nearly half of the tested shared genes cannot. For example, most yeast proteasome subunits are "humanizable", except subunits comprising the ß-ring core, including ß2c (HsPSMB7, a constitut ...

Humanized yeast to model human biology, disease and evolution

Author(s): Kachroo AH; Vandeloo M; Greco BM; Abdullah M;

For decades, budding yeast, a single-cellular eukaryote, has provided remarkable insights into human biology. Yeast and humans share several thousand genes despite morphological and cellular differences and over a billion years of separate evolution. These genes encode critical cellular processes, the failure of which in humans results in disease. Althoug ...
