YOP1

YIP2, L000004674, YPR028W
Membrane protein that interacts with Yip1p to mediate membrane traffic; interacts with Sey1p to maintain ER morphology; overexpression leads to cell death and accumulation of internal cell membranes; mutants have reduced phosphatidylserine transfer between the ER and mitochondria; forms ER foci upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

NUP116

NSP116, FG-nucleoporin NUP116, L000001293, YMR047C
FG-nucleoporin component of central core of the nuclear pore complex; contributes directly to nucleocytoplasmic transport and maintenance of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) permeability barrier; forms a stable association with Nup82p, Gle2p and two other FG-nucleoporins (Nsp1p and Nup159p); NUP116 has a paralog, NUP100, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

ER membrane-bending proteins are necessary for de novo nuclear pore formation.

Dawson TR, Lazarus MD, Hetzer MW, Wente SR

Nucleocytoplasmic transport occurs exclusively through nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) embedded in pores formed by inner and outer nuclear membrane fusion. The mechanism for de novo pore and NPC biogenesis remains unclear. Reticulons (RTNs) and Yop1/DP1 are conserved membrane protein families required to form and maintain the tubular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the postmitotic nuclear envelope. In this study, we report ... [more]
