NPR2

nitrogen permease regulating protein NPR2, L000001274, YEL062W
Subunit of SEA (Seh1-associated), Npr2/3, and Iml1p complexes; Npr2/3 complex mediates downregulation of TORC1 activity upon amino acid limitation; SEA complex is a coatomer-related complex that associates dynamically with the vacuole; Iml1p complex is required for non-nitrogen-starvation (NNS)-induced autophagy; Iml1p interacts primarily with phosphorylated Npr2p; homolog of human tumor suppressor NPRL2; target of Grr1p; required for growth on urea and proline
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

SCH9

HRM2, KOM1, serine/threonine protein kinase SCH9, L000001810, YHR205W
AGC family protein kinase; functional ortholog of mammalian S6 kinase; phosphorylated by Tor1p and required for TORC1-mediated regulation of ribosome biogenesis, translation initiation, and entry into G0 phase; involved in transactivation of osmostress-responsive genes; regulates G1 progression, cAPK activity and nitrogen activation of the FGM pathway; integrates nutrient signals and stress signals from sphingolipids to regulate lifespan
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Growth Defect

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in a significant growth defect under a given condition when combined in the same cell.

Npr2 inhibits TORC1 to prevent inappropriate utilization of glutamine for biosynthesis of nitrogen-containing metabolites.

Laxman S, Sutter BM, Shi L, Tu BP

Cells must be capable of switching between growth and autophagy in unpredictable nutrient environments. The conserved Npr2 protein complex (comprising Iml1, Npr2, and Npr3; also called SEACIT) inhibits target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) kinase signaling, which inhibits autophagy in nutrient-rich conditions. In yeast cultured in media with nutrient limitations that promote autophagy and inhibit growth, loss of Npr2 enables ... [more]
