High impact information on YLL017W

  • The 3'-terminal part of SCD25, a gene of S. cerevisiae structurally related to CDC25, can suppress the requirement for CDC25 [1].
  • Partially purified preparations of the carboxy-terminal domain of the SCD25 gene product enhanced the exchange rate of guanosine diphosphate (GDP) to guanosine triphosphate (GTP) of pure RAS2 protein by stimulating the release of GDP [1].
  • Mutations of Ha-ras p21 that define important regions for the molecular mechanism of the SDC25 C-domain, a guanine nucleotide dissociation stimulator [2].
  • Using purified RAS proteins, we have found that the SDC25-stimulated conversion of RAS from the GDP-bound inactive state to the GTP-bound active state was severely impaired by amino acid substitutions at positions 80-81 [3].
  • Specifically, SDC25 C domain functions as an exchange factor for cellular Ras proteins in CHO cells [4].
 

Biological context of YLL017W

 

Anatomical context of YLL017W

 

Associations of YLL017W with chemical compounds

  • Guanine Exchange Factor (GEF) activity for Ras proteins has been associated with a conserved domain in Cdc25p, Sdc25p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and several other proteins recently found in other eukaryotes [11].
  • SDC25, a dispensable Ras guanine nucleotide exchange factor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae differs from CDC25 by its regulation [12].
  • We also show that the two genes are differentially regulated: SDC25 is not transcribed at a detectable level in growth conditions when glucose is the carbon source [12].
 

Physical interactions of YLL017W

  • These results strongly suggest that the residues R80 and N81 are situated in or closely associated with the Ras2p specific site binding Sdc25p [13].
 

Regulatory relationships of YLL017W

  • In contrast with the C-terminal part, the complete SDC25 gene was found not to suppress the CDC25 gene defect [5].
  • Our results indicate that the SDC25 C-domain activates adenylyl cyclase by rapidly recycling the active RAS2. or RAS1.GTP complex from the respective GDP complex [7].
 

Other interactions of YLL017W

  • We demonstrate that the GEF domain of Sdc25p is closely related to that of Cdc25p [11].
  • We have introduced single and double amino acid substitutions at positions 80-83 of the RAS2 gene, and we have investigated the interaction of the corresponding proteins with a yeast GDP dissociation stimulator (SDC25 C-domain) [3].
  • We have analyzed the function of this region and the effect of its farnesylation with respect to the action of the GDP/GTP exchange factors (GEFs) Cdc25p and Sdc25p and the target adenylyl cyclase [9].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of YLL017W

  • Retention phenomena occurring on gel-filtration chromatography hindered the use of highly purified Sdc25p-C to study the formation of stable complexes with Ras2p [13].
