YAP1

PAR1, SNQ3, DNA-binding transcription factor YAP1, L000001364, YML007W
Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor; required for oxidative stress tolerance; activated by H2O2 through the multistep formation of disulfide bonds and transit from the cytoplasm to the nucleus; Yap1p is degraded in the nucleus after the oxidative stress has passed; mediates resistance to cadmium; relative distribution to the nucleus increases upon DNA replication stress; YAP1 has a paralog, CAD1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

TRX1

LMA1, thioredoxin TRX1, L000002357, YLR043C
Cytoplasmic thioredoxin isoenzyme; part of thioredoxin system which protects cells against oxidative and reductive stress; forms LMA1 complex with Pbi2p; acts as a cofactor for Tsa1p; required for ER-Golgi transport and vacuole inheritance; with Trx2p, facilitates mitochondrial import of small Tims Tim9p, Tim10p, Tim13p by maintaining them in reduced form; abundance increases iunder DNA replication stress; TRX1 has a paralog, TRX2, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

Thioredoxin deficiency causes the constitutive activation of Yap1, an AP-1-like transcription factor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Yap1 is a transcription factor that responds to oxidative stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The activity of Yap1 is regulated at the level of its intracellular localization, and a cysteine-rich domain at the C terminus of Yap1 is involved in this regulation. We investigated the effects of redox-regulatory proteins, thioredoxin and glutaredoxin, on the regulation of Yap1, using the deficient mutants ... [more]
