Alleles, Strains, and Phenotypes

Partial Deletion

Strain Background: LWY 7235
Genotype: LWY 5798 (vac17::TRP1)
Phenotype(s): Loss of function (Null), Recessive, Viable Mutation type(s): Partial deletion from 17364 to partialDelTo

In LWY5798, residues 26-357 of Vac17p was substituted with the TRP1 gene. [2] [4]


Interactions

Physical

Physical interaction with VAC8
Immunoprecipitating Vac17p with sheep anti-Vac17p antibody coprecipitates Vac8p. [2] [4]


Physical interaction with MYO2
Immunoprecipitating Vac17p with sheep anti-Vac17p antibody coprecipitates Myo2p. [2] [4]


Two Hybrid

Two Hybrid interaction with VAC8
Residues 290-380 of Vac17p interact with Vac8p in a yeast two-hybrid analysis. [2] [4]


Protein Details

Protein Degradation

Vac17p contains a PEST sequence, a rapid degradation signal. The PEST-dependent degradation appears to occur in the bud after vacuoles arrive in the bud. [2] [4]


Protein Function/Process

Vac17p is involved in vacuole inheritance. Deletion of VAC17 gene blocks vacuole inheritance. Vac17p functions as the vacuole-specific Myp2p receptor. It forms a complex with Myo2p and Vac8p, a vacuolar membrane protein. Vac17p connects Myo2p to Vac8p and thus the vacuole membrane. [2] [4]


Protein Localization

Vac17p is localized on the vacuole membrane in a Vac8p-dependent manner. [2] [4]
