MSB3

GYP3, L000003918, YNL293W
Rab GTPase-activating protein; regulates endocytosis via inactivation of Vps21p at endosomes and vacuole fusion via inactivation of Ypt7p at vacuoles; also acts on Ypt52p and Sec4p; required for proper actin organization; also localizes to plasma membrane and sites of polarized growth; relocalizes from bud neck to cytoplasm upon DNA replication stress; similar to the TBC-domain Tre2 oncogene; MSB3 has a paralog, MSB4, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

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

Phenotypic Enhancement

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or overexpression of one gene results in enhancement of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.

Publication

The GAP activity of Msb3p and Msb4p for the Rab GTPase Sec4p is required for efficient exocytosis and actin organization.

Gao XD, Albert S, Tcheperegine SE, Burd CG, Gallwitz D, Bi E

Polarized growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is thought to occur by the transport of post-Golgi vesicles along actin cables to the daughter cell, and the subsequent fusion of the vesicles with the plasma membrane. Previously, we have shown that Msb3p and Msb4p genetically interact with Cdc42p and display a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) activity toward a number of Rab GTPases in vitro. ... [more]
