High impact information on PMP2

  • The two proteolipids differ at residue 21, which is an alanine in PMP1 and a serine in PMP2 [1].
  • PMP2 encodes a 43-amino acid polypeptide that can be extracted from the membrane with chloroform/methanol [1].
  • Multimeric presentation of the Arg-based signal from Kir6.2 on Pmp2p results in forward transport, which requires 14-3-3 proteins encoded in yeast by BMH1 and BMH2 in two isoforms [2].
  • The Pmp2p isoproteolipid, a type I yeast membrane protein, reports faithfully on the activity of sorting signals when fused to a tail containing either an Arg-based motif or a -KKXX signal [2].
