Systematic name YNL098C
Gene name RAS2
Aliases CTN5, CYR3, GLC5, TSL7
Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr XIV:440572..439604

Alleles, Strains, and Phenotypes

Other Mutation

Strain Background: W303-1B (see detailed notes from Rodney Rothstein and Stephan Bartsch for the W303 strain used in the study)
Together with: YFH1
Phenotype(s): Viable Mutation type(s): transposon insertion

A C-terminal truncation of RAS2 increased mRNA levels of CIT2 by a factor of two. [4] [5]


Interactions

Genetic

YNL098C is a suppressor of YFH1


Strain Background: W303-1B (see detailed notes from Rodney Rothstein and Stephan Bartsch for the W303 strain used in the study)
Together with: YFH1
Mutation type(s): partial deletion, deletion

A mutation in RAS2 supressed a growth defect of deltaYFH1 strain on toxic levels of iron in growth media. [4] [5]
