SEC14

PIT1, phosphatidylinositol/phosphatidylcholine transfer protein SEC14, L000001839, YMR079W
Phosphatidylinositol/phosphatidylcholine transfer protein; involved in regulating PtdIns, PtdCho, and ceramide metabolism, products of which regulate intracellular transport and UPR; has a role in localization of lipid raft proteins; functionally homologous to mammalian PITPs; SEC14 has a paralog, YKL091C, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

ELP3

HPA1, KTI8, TOT3, Elongator subunit ELP3, KAT9, L000004378, YPL086C
Subunit of Elongator complex; Elongator is required for modification of wobble nucleosides in tRNA; exhibits histone acetyltransferase activity that is directed to histones H3 and H4; disruption confers resistance to K. lactis zymotoxin

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 oxysterol binding protein Kes1p regulates Golgi apparatus phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate function.

Fairn GD, Curwin AJ, Stefan CJ, McMaster CR

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylinositol transfer protein Sec14p is required for Golgi apparatus-derived vesicular transport through coordinate regulation of phospholipid metabolism. Sec14p is normally essential. The essential requirement for SEC14 can be bypassed by inactivation of (i) the CDP-choline pathway for phosphatidylcholine synthesis or (ii) KES1, which encodes an oxysterol binding protein. A unique screen was used to determine genome-wide genetic ... [more]
