High impact information on SEC2

 

Biological context of SEC2

  • All phenotypes of the temperature-sensitive sec2 alleles are partially suppressed by duplication of the SEC4 gene, but the lethality of a sec2 disruption is not suppressed [5].
  • In addition, we mapped the ERG24 gene to chromosome XIV between the MET2 and SEC2 genes [6].
 

Physical interactions of SEC2

  • We showed also that GYP5 genetically interacts with SEC2, which encodes the Sec4p exchange factor [7].
 

Regulatory relationships of SEC2

  • Moreover, at 34 degrees C, overexpression of Scd5p suppresses the temperature sensitivity of a sec2 mutant, which is blocked at a post-Golgi step of the secretory pathway [8].
