KAR2

GRP78, Hsp70 family ATPase KAR2, BIP, L000000887, YJL034W
ATPase involved in protein import into the ER; also acts as a chaperone to mediate protein folding in the ER and may play a role in ER export of soluble proteins; regulates the unfolded protein response via interaction with Ire1p

Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

EMP65

YER140W
ER membrane protein of unknown function; forms an ER-membrane associated protein complex with Slp1p; identified along with SLP1 in a screen for mutants defective in the unfolded protein response (UPR); proposed to function in the folding of integral membrane proteins; interacts genetically with MPS1; the authentic, non-tagged protein is detected in highly purified mitochondria in high-throughput studies

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a less severe fitness defect than expected under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.

J domain co-chaperone specificity defines the role of BiP during protein translocation.

Vembar SS, Jonikas MC, Hendershot LM, Weissman JS, Brodsky JL

Hsp70 chaperones can potentially interact with one of several J domain-containing Hsp40 co-chaperones to regulate distinct cellular processes. However, features within Hsp70s that determine Hsp40 specificity are undefined. To investigate this question, we introduced mutations into the ER-lumenal Hsp70, BiP/Kar2p, and found that an R217A substitution in the J domain-interacting surface of BiP compromised the physical and functional interaction with ...
