BAIT

BAT1

ECA39, TWT1, branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase BAT1, L000002396, YHR208W
Mitochondrial branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) aminotransferase; preferentially involved in BCAA biosynthesis; homolog of murine ECA39; highly expressed during logarithmic phase and repressed during stationary phase; BAT1 has a paralog, BAT2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Affinity Capture-MS

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner is identified by mass spectrometric methods.

Branched-Chain Aminotransferases Control TORC1 Signaling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Kingsbury JM, Sen ND, Cardenas ME

The conserved target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) integrates nutrient signals to orchestrate cell growth and proliferation. Leucine availability is conveyed to control TORC1 activity via the leu-tRNA synthetase/EGOC-GTPase module in yeast and mammals, but the mechanisms sensing leucine remain only partially understood. We show here that both leucine and its α-ketoacid metabolite, α-ketoisocaproate, effectively activate the yeast TORC1 kinase ... [more]
