Identification and characterization of roles for Puf1 and Puf2 proteins in the yeast response to high calcium
Abstract Members of the yeast family of PUF proteins bind unique subsets of mRNA targets that encode proteins with common functions. They therefore became a paradigm for post-transcriptional gene control. To provide new insights into the roles of the seemingly redundant Puf1 and Puf2 members, we mon...
