YAP3, L000002491, YLR120C
Aspartic protease; member of the yapsin family of proteases involved in cell wall growth and maintenance; attached to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor; YPS1 has a paralog, MKC7, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Dosage Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.

Publication

N-terminal entrance loop of yeast Yps1 and O-glycosylation of substrates are determinant factors controlling the shedding activity of this GPI-anchored endopeptidase.

Dube AK, Belanger M, Gagnon-Arsenault I, Bourbonnais Y

S. cerevisiae Yps1 is the prototypical aspartic endopeptidase of the fungal yapsin family. This glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored enzyme was recently shown to be involved in the shedding of the GPI proteins Utr2, Gas1 and itself. It was also proposed to be part of a novel quality control mechanism that eliminates excess and/or misfolded GPI proteins. What regulates its shedding activity ... [more]

Throughput

  • Low Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: resistance to chemicals (APO:0000087)
  • phenotype: vegetative growth (APO:0000106)

Additional Notes

  • Overexpression of native Yps1 partially corrects the SDS hypersensitivity of kex2 mutants
