MSB4

L000003919, YOL112W
GTPase-activating protein of the Ras superfamily; acts primarily on Sec4p, localizes to the bud site and bud tip; msb3 msb4 double mutation causes defects in secretion and actin organization; similar to the TBC-domain Tre2 oncogene; MSB4 has a paralog, MSB3, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Regulation of cell polarity by interactions of Msb3 and Msb4 with Cdc42 and polarisome components.

Tcheperegine SE, Gao XD, Bi E

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, polarized growth depends on interactions between the actin cytoskeleton and the secretory machinery. Here we show that the Rab GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) Msb3 and Msb4 interact directly with Spa2, a scaffold protein of the "polarisome" that also interacts with the formin Bni1. Spa2 is required for the polarized localization of Msb3 and Msb4 at the bud tip. ... [more]

Synthetic Lethality

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