High impact information on YME2

 

Biological context of YME2

  • While the other yme mutations had no detectable growth phenotypes, synergistic interactions were observed in two double mutant combinations: a yme1, yme2 double mutant failed to respire at 30 degrees and a yme4, yme6 double mutant failed to respire at all temperatures tested [3].
  • Furthermore, conserved sequence elements in Yme2p suggest that this protein may also function as an exonuclease [4].
 

Anatomical context of YME2

  • These findings suggest that yme1, yme2, yme4 and yme6 mutations alter mitochondrial functions and thereby lead to an increased rate of DNA escape from the organelle [3].
