Two degrons in yeast ornithine decarboxylase sequence target it for degradation.
They are N-terminal fifty residues and 伪/尾 domain with antizyme binding sequence.
Three peptides N50, 伪/尾 and N伪/尾 were examined for their degradation potentials.
N伪/尾 regulated by antizyme is a better degron than N50, while 伪/尾 failed as a degron.
Functional efficacy of the degrons is a consequence of their structural integrity.
