SLT2

BYC2, LYT2, MPK1, SLK2, mitogen-activated serine/threonine-protein kinase SLT2, L000001919, YHR030C
Serine/threonine MAP kinase; involved in regulating maintenance of cell wall integrity, cell cycle progression, and nuclear mRNA retention in heat shock; required for mitophagy and pexophagy; affects recruitment of mitochondria to phagophore assembly site (PAS); plays a role in adaptive response of cells to cold; regulated by the PKC1-mediated signaling pathway; SLT2 has a paralog, KDX1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

TUS1

SOP10, Rho family guanine nucleotide exchange factor TUS1, L000004619, L000004622, YLR425W
Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that modulate Rho1p activity; involved in the cell integrity signaling pathway; interacts with Rgl1p; localization of Tus1p to the bed neck is regulated by Rgl1p; multicopy suppressor of tor2 mutation and ypk1 ypk2 double mutation; potential Cdc28p substrate

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.

Publication

Yeast protein kinases and the RHO1 exchange factor TUS1 are novel components of the cell integrity pathway in yeast.

Schmelzle T, Helliwell SB, Hall MN

The PKC1-associated mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway of Saccharomyces cerevisiae regulates cell integrity by controlling the actin cytoskeleton and cell wall synthesis. Activation of PKC1 occurs via the GTPase RHO1 and the kinase pair PKH1 and PKH2. Here we report that YPK1 and YPK2, an essential pair of homologous kinases and proposed downstream effectors of PKH and sphingolipids, are also ... [more]

PCA

A Protein-Fragment Complementation Assay (PCA) is a protein-protein interaction assay in which a bait protein is expressed as fusion to one of the either N- or C- terminal peptide fragments of a reporter protein and prey protein is expressed as fusion to the complementary N- or C- terminal fragment of the same reporter protein. Interaction of bait and prey proteins bring together complementary fragments, which can then fold into an active reporter, e.g. the split-ubiquitin assay.
