SRT1

L000004878, YMR101C
Cis-prenyltransferase; involved in synthesis of long-chain dolichols (19-22 isoprene units; as opposed to Rer2p which synthesizes shorter-chain dolichols); localizes to lipid bodies; transcription is induced during stationary phase

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

Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has two cis-prenyltransferases with different properties and localizations. Implication for their distinct physiological roles in dolichol synthesis.

BACKGROUND: Dolichol is a family of long-chain polyprenols, which is utilized as a sugar carrier in protein glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We have identified a key enzyme of the dolichol synthesis, cis-prenyltransferase, as Rer2p from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have also isolated a multicopy suppressor of an rer2 mutant and named it SRT1. It encodes a protein similar to ... [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.
