KCS1 / YDR017C Overview


Standard Name
KCS1 1
Systematic Name
YDR017C
SGD ID
SGD:S000002424
Feature Type
ORF , Verified
EC Number
2.7.4.21
Description
Inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) and inositol heptakisphosphate (IP7) kinase; generation of high energy inositol pyrophosphates by Kcs1p is required for many processes such as vacuolar biogenesis, stress response, RNA polymerase I-mediated rRNA transcription and telomere maintenance; phosphorylated by the AMPK Snf1p, leading to reduced levels of pyrophosphorylated IP7, increased filamentous and invasive growth and increased cell elongation 2 3 4 5 6 7
Name Description
pKC1 Suppressor 1

Gene Ontology Details

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.

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 Details

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
KCS1/YDR017C is a non-essential gene; null mutants are viable but exhibit a variety of phenotypes including auxotrophy, increased cell size, abnormal chromosome/plasmid maintenance, increased cold sensitivity, increased heat sensitivity, decreased competitive fitness, abnormal endocytosis, decreased rate of fermentative growth, decreased growth rate in the exponential phase, decreased resistance to hyperosmotic stress, decreased innate thermotolerance, decreased invasive growth, decreased ionic stress resistance, decreased metal resistance, abnormal mitochondrial morphology, increased nutrient uptake, decreased pseudohyphal growth, absent or decreased sporulation, altered transposable element transposition, decreased utilization of carbon and nitrogen sources, abnormal vacuolar morphology, and decreased rate of vegetative growth. Conditional mutants also show increased heat sensitivity. Overexpression of KCS1 results in decreased vegetative growth rate and abnormal pseudohyphal growth.
Interaction Details

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 Details

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.


Summary
KCS1 transcription is regulated by Spt10p; KCS1 transcription is upregulated by Gcr1p during inositol starvation; Kcs1 protein activity is regulated by Snf1p and Tpk1p
Expression Details

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.
