Corrected sequence of the yeast neutral trehalase-encoding gene (NTH1): biological implications

We have identified a sequencing error in the neutral trehalase-encoding gene NTH1 [Kopp et al., J. Biol. Chem. 268 (1993) 4766-4774]. This error extends the deduced amino acid (aa) sequence at the N terminus by 58 aa. The biological implications of this include the presence of an additional phosphorylation site, which is believed to regulate trehalose hydrolysis.
