From the Most Ras proteins are posttranslationally
modified by a palmitoyl lipid moiety through a thioester linkage.
However, the mechanism by which this occurs is not known. Here,
evidence is presented that the Ras2 protein of Saccharomyces
cerevisiae is palmitoylated by a Ras protein acyltransferase (Ras
PAT) encoded by the ERF2 and ERF4 genes.
Erf2p is a 41-kDa protein localized to the membrane of the
endoplasmic reticulum and contains a conserved DHHC cysteine-rich domain (DHHC-CRD). Erf2p co-purifies with Erf4p (26 kDa) when it
is expressed in yeast or in Escherichia coli. The
Erf2p/Erf4p complex is required for Ras PAT activity, and
mutations within conserved residues (Cys189,
His201, and Cys203) of the Erf2p
DHHC-CRD domain abolish Ras PAT activity. Furthermore, a
palmitoyl-Erf2p intermediate is detected suggesting that
Erf2p is directly involved in palmitate transfer.
ERF2 and ERF4 are the first genes identified
that encode a palmitoyltransferase for a Ras GTPase.
