VAM6

CVT4, VPL18, VPL22, VPS39, L000003935, YDL077C
Subunit of the HOPS endocytic tethering complex; vacuole membrane protein that functions as a Rab GTPase effector, interacting with both GTP- and GDP-bound conformations of Ypt7p, facilitating tethering and promoting several membrane fusion events at the late endosome and vacuole; required for both membrane and protein trafficking
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

TOR1

DRR1, phosphatidylinositol kinase-related protein kinase TOR1, L000002322, YJR066W
PIK-related protein kinase and rapamycin target; subunit of TORC1, a complex that controls growth in response to nutrients by regulating translation, transcription, ribosome biogenesis, nutrient transport and autophagy; involved in meiosis; TOR1 has a paralog, TOR2, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Kinome Project (Sc)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

The target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) is a central regulator of eukaryotic cell growth that is activated by a variety of hormones (e.g., insulin) and nutrients (e.g., amino acids) and is deregulated in various cancers. Here, we report that the yeast Rag GTPase homolog Gtr1, a component of the vacuolar-membrane-associated EGO complex (EGOC), interacts with and activates TORC1 in ... [more]
