BAT1

ECA39, TWT1, branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase BAT1, L000002396, YHR208W
Mitochondrial branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) aminotransferase; preferentially involved in BCAA biosynthesis; homolog of murine ECA39; highly expressed during logarithmic phase and repressed during stationary phase; BAT1 has a paralog, BAT2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

ILV6

acetolactate synthase regulatory subunit, L000004096, YCL009C
Regulatory subunit of acetolactate synthase; acetolactate synthase catalyzes the first step of branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis; enhances activity of the Ilv2p catalytic subunit, localizes to mitochondria

Phenotypic Suppression

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

Uncovering the role of branched-chain amino acid transaminases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae isobutanol biosynthesis.

Hammer SK, Avalos JL

Isobutanol and other branched-chain higher alcohols (BCHAs) are promising advanced biofuels derived from the degradation of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a particularly attractive host for the production of BCHAs due to its high tolerance to alcohols and prevalent use in the bioethanol industry. Degradation of BCAAs begins with transamination reactions, catalyzed by branched-chain amino acid ... [more]

Throughput

  • Low Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: chemical compound accumulation (APO:0000095)

Additional Notes

  • Deletion of ILV6 partially suppresses the increase in isobutanol production observed in the bat1 mutant strain in the absence of valine, but it also causes a slight increase in isobutanol production in the presence of valine
