The signature motif of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pif1 DNA helicase is essential in vivo for mitochondrial and nuclear functions and in vitro for ATPase activity [PDF]
, 2018 Pif1 family DNA helicases are conserved from bacteria to humans and have critical and diverse functions in vivo that promote genome integrity. Pif1 family helicases share a 23 amino acid region, called the Pif1 signature motif (SM) that is unique to this

Expression of the hepatitis B surface antigen gene containing the preS2 region in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
, 1991 We constructed a plasmid, pBH103-ME5, in which the region encoding the 10 preS2 amino acid residues and the S domain of the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) were regulated by the promoter of the yeast repressible acid phosphatase gene.

On the Species Specificity of Acceptor RNA and Attachment Enzymes [PDF]
, 1961 One of the steps in protein biosynthesis appears to be the attachment of each amino acid to a specific acceptor (SRNA) molecule. According to the adaptor hypothesis, each SRNA molecule would then fit to a specific complementary base sequence on a linear ...
