USA1

L000003225, YML029W
Scaffold subunit of the Hrd1p ubiquitin ligase; also promotes ligase oligomerization; involved in ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD); interacts with the U1 snRNP-specific protein, Snp1p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

HAC1

ERN4, IRE15, transcription factor HAC1, L000002611, YFL031W
Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor (ATF/CREB1 homolog); regulates the unfolded protein response, via UPRE binding, and membrane biogenesis; ER stress-induced splicing pathway facilitates efficient Hac1p synthesis; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Growth Defect

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in a significant growth defect under a given condition when combined in the same cell.

Protein quality control in the endoplasmic reticulum is of central importance for cellular homeostasis in eukaryotes. Crucial for this process is the HRD-ubiquitin ligase (HMG-CoA reductase degradation), which singles out terminally misfolded proteins and routes them for degradation to cytoplasmic 26S-proteasomes. Certain functions of this enzyme complex are allocated to defined subunits. However, it remains unclear how these components act ... [more]
