High impact information on BOR1

These studies show that enolase stimulates vacuole fusion and that enolase and Bor1p regulate selective protein trafficking to the vacuole [1].
Roles of BOR1, DUR3, and FPS1 in boron transport and tolerance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [2].
The boron concentration in yeast cells lacking BOR1 was elevated upon exposure to 90 mM boric acid, whereas cells lacking DUR3 or FPS1 showed lower boron concentrations [2].
An Arabidopsis thaliana cDNA library was introduced into a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant that lacks ScBOR1 (YNL275W), a boron (B) efflux transporter [3].

Anatomical context of BOR1

Bor1p, the yeast band 3 homolog, localizes to the vacuole [1].

Other interactions of BOR1

The roles of three membrane proteins, BOR1, DUR3, and FPS1, in boron (B) transport in yeast were examined [2].
