Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr XIII:701790..703367
Primary SGDID S000004830


Description of YMR217W: GMP synthase; highly conserved enzyme that catalyzes the second step in the biosynthesis of GMP from inosine 5'-phosphate (IMP); transcription is not subject to regulation by guanine but is negatively regulated by nutrient starvation; reduction-of-function mutation gua1-G388D causes changes in cellular guanine nucleotide pools, defects in general protein synthesis, and impaired translation of GCN4 mRNA[1][2][3][4][5]
