title: Sequence of ptb1, a gene for the beta subunit of the type-II geranylgeranyltransferase from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
abstract: We have isolated and sequenced the ptb1 gene from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Sequence analysis suggests that Ptb1 is the beta subunit of the type-II geranylgeranyltransferase that is responsible for geranylgeranylation of the Rab-like YPT proteins in this yeast.
