Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.

YFT2FIT family protein YFT2; Protein required for normal ER membrane biosynthesis; member of the highly conserved FIT family of proteins involved in triglyceride droplet biosynthesis and homologous to human FIT2; interacts with Sst2p and Hsp82p in high-throughput two-hybrid screens. (274 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
SCS3
FIT family protein SCS3; Protein required for inositol prototrophy; required for normal ER membrane biosynthesis; ortholog of the FIT family of proteins involved in triglyceride droplet biosynthesis and homologous to human FIT2; disputed role in the synthesis of inositol phospholipids from inositol.

SEI1
Seipin involved in lipid droplet (LD) assembly; controls lipid particle morphology, number, and size; promotes initiation of LD formation on the ER; ensures that LDs bud from the ER towards the cytosolic side of the membrane; forms a complex with Ldb16p at ER-LD contact sites, stabilizing these sites; null mutants have localized accumulation of phosphatidic acid (PA) marker proteins; BSCL2, human homolog implicated in congenital lipodystrophy, complements yeast null mutant.
   
 
 0.955
PET10
Protein of unknown function that localizes to lipid particles; localization suggests a role in lipid metabolism; expression pattern suggests a role in respiratory growth; computational analysis of large-scale protein-protein interaction data suggests a role in ATP/ADP exchange.
   
 
 0.894
PEX30
ER-resident protein involved in peroxisomal biogenesis; ER-localized protein that associates with peroxisomes; interacts with Pex29p and reticulons Rtn1p and Yop1p to regulate peroxisome biogenesis from the ER; role in peroxisomal-destined vesicular flow from the ER; partially redundant with Pex31p; may function at a step downstream of steps mediated by Pex28p and Pex29p; PEX30 has a paralog, PEX31, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the PEX28-32 family. PEX30/31 subfamily.

DGA1
Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1; Diacylglycerol acyltransferase; catalyzes the terminal step of triacylglycerol (TAG) formation, acylates diacylglycerol using acyl-CoA as an acyl donor; Lro1p and Dga1p can O-acylate ceramides; localized to lipid particles.
   
  
 0.755
LDB16
Protein involved in lipid droplet (LD) assembly; forms a complex with Sei1p at ER-LD contact sites, stabilizing contact sites; ensures that LDs bud from the ER towards the cytosolic side of the membrane; null mutants have decreased net negative cell surface charge and localized accumulation of phosphatidic acid (PA) marker proteins; GFP-fusion protein expression is induced in response to MMS; null mutant can be complemented by the human seipin, BSCL2.
      
 0.747
LRO1
Acyltransferase that catalyzes diacylglycerol esterification; one of several acyltransferases that contribute to triglyceride synthesis; Lro1p and Dga1p can O-acylate ceramides; putative homolog of human lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase.
      
 0.734
PAH1
Phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase 1; Mg2+-dependent phosphatidate (PA) phosphatase; dephosphorylates PA to yield diacylglycerol; regulates phospholipid synthesis, nuclear/ER membrane growth, lipid droplet formation, triacylglycerol synthesis, vacuolar homeostasis and cell wall integrity; phosphorylated by Pho85p/Pho80p, Cdc28p/Cyclin B, PKA, PKC, and CKII, regulating activity, localization, and proteosomal degradation; homolog of mammalian lipins 1 and 2; human homologs LPIN1, LPIN2, LPIN3 complement the null.
      
 0.639
ARE2
Sterol O-acyltransferase 2; Acyl-CoA:sterol acyltransferase; endoplasmic reticulum enzyme that contributes the major sterol esterification activity in the presence of oxygen; ARE2 has a paralog, ARE1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
  
 0.624
DPP1
Diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP) phosphatase; zinc-regulated vacuolar membrane-associated lipid phosphatase, dephosphorylates DGPP to phosphatidate (PA) and Pi, then PA to diacylglycerol; involved in lipid signaling and cell metabolism; Belongs to the PA-phosphatase related phosphoesterase family.
