VPS21

VPS12, VPT12, YPT21, YPT51, Rab family GTPase VPS21, L000002474, YOR089C
Endosomal Rab family GTPase; required for endocytic transport and sorting of vacuolar hydrolases; required for endosomal localization of the CORVET complex; required with YPT52 for MVB biogenesis and sorting; involved in autophagy and ionic stress tolerance; geranylgeranylation required for membrane association; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; mammalian Rab5 homolog; VPS21 has a paralog, YPT53, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

MON1

AUT12, YGL124C
Subunit of a heterodimeric guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF); subunit of the Mon1-Ccz1 GEF complex which stimulates nucleotide exchange and activation of Ypt7p, a Rab family GTPase involved in membrane tethering and fusion events at the late endosome and vacuole; GEF activity is stimulated by membrane association and anionic phospholipids; role in localizing Ypt7p to the vacuolar membrane; required for autophagy, the CVT pathway and mitophagy; potential Cdc28 substrate
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Phenotypic Enhancement

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

Rab5-independent activation and function of yeast Rab7-like protein, Ypt7p, in the AP-3 pathway.

Shimamura H, Nagano M, Nakajima K, Toshima JY, Toshima J

The small GTPases, Rab5 and Rab7, are key regulators at multiple stages of the endocytic/endolysosomal pathway, including fusion and maturation of endosomes. In yeast, Vps21p (Rab5 homolog) recruits a GEF for Rab7 and activates the downstream Ypt7p (Rab7 homolog) on endosomal membrane. Although the model of this sequential activation from Vps21p to Ypt7p in the endocytic pathway has been established, ... [more]
