Alleles

Curated mutant alleles for the specified gene, listed alphabetically. Click on the allele name to open the allele page. Click "SGD search" to view all alleles in search results.

Gene Ontology

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code. SGD has manually curated and high-throughput GO Annotations, both derived from the literature, as well as computational, or predicted, annotations. Click "Gene Ontology Details" to view all GO information and evidence for this locus as well as biological processes it shares with other genes.

Functional Networks

Functional Networks display how gene products work together in biological systems. The Shared Annotations network shows genes with similar GO annotations, suggesting functional relationships. GO-CAMs (Gene Ontology Causal Activity Models) are manually curated pathway models that illustrate how molecular activities of multiple gene products connect through causal relationships to carry out biological processes. GO-CAMs integrate Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component information into unified pathway representations based on published experimental evidence. Click "View GO-CAM at Gene Ontology" to explore the interactive model at AmiGO.

Metabolic Pathways

Metabolic Pathways annotations describe biochemical pathways involving this gene product in small molecule metabolism. These annotations connect gene products to specific metabolic reactions, substrates, and products within larger metabolic networks. Metabolic pathway data is curated from published scientific literature. Click the links to see detailed pathway diagrams on SGD's YeastPathways site for further exploration.

Phenotype

Phenotype annotations for a gene are curated single mutant phenotypes that require an observable (e.g., "cell shape"), a qualifier (e.g., "abnormal"), a mutant type (e.g., null), strain background, and a reference. In addition, annotations are classified as classical genetics or high-throughput (e.g., large scale survey, systematic mutation set). Whenever possible, allele information and additional details are provided. Click "Phenotype Details" to view all phenotype annotations and evidence for this locus as well as phenotypes it shares with other genes.

Summary

Non-essential gene in reference strain S288C; simultaneous mutations in ASN2 and its paralog ASN1 confer asparagine auxotropy; in systematic studies null mutant shows increased sensitivity to starvation; the null mutant of paralog asn1 is viable; the asn2 asn1 double mutant is inviable or displays a growth defect

Interaction

Interaction annotations are curated by BioGRID and include physical or genetic interactions observed between at least two genes. An interaction annotation is composed of the interaction type, name of the interactor, assay type (e.g., Two-Hybrid), annotation type (e.g., manual or high-throughput), and a reference, as well as other experimental details. Click "Interaction Details" to view all interaction annotations and evidence for this locus, including an interaction visualization.

Regulation

The number of putative Regulators (genes that regulate it) and Targets (genes it regulates) for the given locus, based on experimental evidence. This evidence includes data generated through high-throughput techniques. Click "Regulation Details" to view all regulation annotations, shared GO enrichment among regulation Targets, and a regulator/target diagram for the locus.

Expression

Expression data are derived from records contained in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and are first log2 transformed and normalized. Referenced datasets may contain one or more condition(s), and as a result there may be a greater number of conditions than datasets represented in a single clickable histogram bar. The histogram division at 0.0 separates the down-regulated (green) conditions and datasets from those that are up-regulated (red). Click "Expression Details" to view all expression annotations and details for this locus, including a visualization of genes that share a similar expression pattern.

All Curated Literature

All manually curated literature for the specified gene, shown as a count of references by year of publication followed by the most recent papers. Click "Literature Details" or "See all" to view all literature information for this locus, organized into topics according to their relevance to the gene (Primary Literature, Additional Literature, or Review).
