BAIT

PHO87

L000002740, YCR037C
Low-affinity inorganic phosphate (Pi) transporter; acts upstream of Pho81p in regulation of the PHO pathway; expression is independent of Pi concentration and Pho4p activity; contains 12 membrane-spanning segments; PHO87 has a paralog, PHO90, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

PHO89

ITN1, YBR296C
Plasma membrane Na+/Pi cotransporter; active in early growth phase; similar to phosphate transporters of Neurospora crassa; transcription regulated by inorganic phosphate concentrations and Pho4p; mutations in related human transporter genes hPit1 and hPit2 are associated with hyperphosphatemia-induced calcification of vascular tissue and familial idiopathic basal ganglia calcification

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.

Phosphate transport and sensing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Wykoff DD, O'Shea EK

Cellular metabolism depends on the appropriate concentration of intracellular inorganic phosphate; however, little is known about how phosphate concentrations are sensed. The similarity of Pho84p, a high-affinity phosphate transporter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to the glucose sensors Snf3p and Rgt2p has led to the hypothesis that Pho84p is an inorganic phosphate sensor. Furthermore, pho84Delta strains have defects in phosphate signaling; they ... [more]
