ECM22

L000004375, YLR228C
Sterol regulatory element binding protein; regulates transcription of sterol biosynthetic genes; contains Zn[2]-Cys[6] binuclear cluster; relocates from intracellular membranes to perinuclear foci on sterol depletion; ECM22 has a paralog, UPC2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

Upc2p and Ecm22p, dual regulators of sterol biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Vik A, Rine J

Sterol levels affect the expression of many genes in yeast and humans. We found that the paralogous transcription factors Upc2p and Ecm22p of yeast were sterol regulatory element (SRE) binding proteins (SREBPs) responsible for regulating transcription of the sterol biosynthetic genes ERG2 and ERG3. We defined a 7-bp SRE common to these and other genes, including many genes involved in ... [more]
