YPT1

Rab family GTPase YPT1, YP2, L000002543, YFL038C
Rab family GTPase; involved in the ER-to-Golgi step of the secretory pathway; complex formation with the Rab escort protein Mrs6p is required for prenylation of Ypt1p by protein geranylgeranyltransferase type II (Bet2p-Bet4p); binds to unspliced HAC1 mRNA; regulates unfolded protein response (UPR) by promoting the decay of HAC1 RNA
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

SEC21

L000001844, YNL287W
Gamma subunit of coatomer; coatomer is a heptameric protein complex that together with Arf1p forms the COPI coat; involved in ER to Golgi transport of selective cargo

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.

The GTP-binding protein Ypt1 is required for transport in vitro: the Golgi apparatus is defective in ypt1 mutants.

Bacon RA, Salminen A, Ruohola H, Novick P, Ferro-Novick S

The YPT1 gene encodes a raslike, GTP-binding protein that is essential for growth of yeast cells. We show here that mutations in the ypt1 gene disrupt transport of carboxypeptidase Y to the vacuole in vivo and transport of pro-alpha-factor to a site of extensive glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus in vitro. Two different ypt1 mutations result in loss of function ... [more]
