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

UFE1

YOR29-26, L000002637, YOR075W
t-SNARE protein required for retrograde vesicular traffic; involved in Sey1p-independent homotypic ER fusion; required for efficient nuclear fusion during mating; forms a complex with the SNAREs Sec22p, Sec20p and Use1p to mediate fusion of Golgi-derived vesicles at the ER

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.

Ypt1p is essential for retrograde Golgi-ER transport and for Golgi maintenance in S. cerevisiae.

The small GTPase Ypt1p of the Rab family is required for docking of ER-derived transport vesicles with the Golgi prior to fusion. However, the identity of the Rab protein that mediates docking of Golgi-derived COPI vesicles with the ER in retrograde transport remains elusive. Here, we show that in yeast Ypt1p is essential for retrograde transport from the Golgi to ... [more]

An interaction is inferred between proteins in vitro. This can include proteins in recombinant form or proteins isolated directly from cells with recombinant or purified bait. For example, GST pull-down assays where a GST-tagged protein is first isolated and then used to fish interactors from cell lysates are considered reconstituted complexes (e.g. PUBMED: 14657240, Fig. 4A or PUBMED: 14761940, Fig. 5). This can also include gel-shifts, surface plasmon resonance, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and bio-layer interferometry (BLI) experiments. The bait-hit directionality may not be clear for 2 interacting proteins. In these cases the directionality is up to the discretion of the curator.
