Gid10 as an alternative N-recognin of the Pro/N-degron pathway.

ABSTRACT: In eukaryotes, N-degron pathways (formerly "N-end rule pathways") comprise a set of proteolytic systems whose unifying feature is their ability to recognize proteins containing N-terminal degradation signals called N-degrons, thereby causing degradation of these proteins by the 26S proteasome or autophagy. Gid4, a subunit of the GID ubiquitin ligase in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is the recognition component (N-recognin) of the GID-mediated Pro/N-degron pathway. Gid4 targets proteins by recognizing their N-terminal Pro residues or a Pro at position 2, in the presence of distinct adjoining sequence motifs. Under conditions of low or absent glucose, cells make it through gluconeogenesis. When S. cerevisiae grows on a nonfermentable carbon source, its gluconeogenic enzym
