Protein with a possible role in phospholipid biosynthesis; null mutant displays an inositol-excreting phenotype that is suppressed by exogenous choline; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress.

Protein SIP18; Phospholipid-binding hydrophilin; essential to overcome desiccation-rehydration process; expression is induced by osmotic stress; SIP18 has a paralog, GRE1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

ATPase-stabilizing factor 15 kDa protein; Protein involved in resistance to desiccation stress; Stf2p exhibits antioxidant properties, and its overexpression prevents ROS accumulation and apoptosis; binds to F0 sector of mitochondrial F1F0 ATPase in vitro and may modulate the inhibitory action of Inh1p and Stf1p; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; STF2 has a paralog, TMA10, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

Protein GRE1; Hydrophilin essential in desiccation-rehydration process; stress induced (osmotic, ionic, oxidative, heat shock and heavy metals); regulated by the HOG pathway; GRE1 has a paralog, SIP18, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

v-SNARE binding protein; facilitates specific protein retrieval from a late endosome to the Golgi; modulates arginine uptake, possible role in mediating pH homeostasis between the vacuole and plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase; contributes to prion curing; preferentially expressed after severe ethanol stress.

Hsp70 (Ssa1p) nucleotide exchange factor; required for the release of misfolded proteins from the Hsp70 system to the Ub-proteasome machinery for destruction; cytosolic homolog of Sil1p, which is the nucleotide exchange factor for BiP (Kar2p) in the endoplasmic reticulum; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress.

Heat shock protein 78, mitochondrial; Oligomeric mitochondrial matrix chaperone; cooperates with Ssc1p in mitochondrial thermotolerance after heat shock; able to prevent the aggregation of misfolded proteins as well as resolubilize protein aggregates.

Nucleolar protein 6; rRNA-binding protein required for 40S ribosomal subunit biogenesis; contains an RNA recognition motif (RRM); hydrophilin essential to overcome the stress of the desiccation-rehydration process; NOP6 may be a fungal-specific gene as no homologs have been yet identified in higher eukaryotes.

Uncharacterized protein YBR016W; Tail-anchored plasma membrane protein with a conserved CYSTM module; predicted to be palmitoylated; has similarity to hydrophilins, which are involved in the adaptive response to hyperosmotic conditions; YBR016W has a paralog, YDL012C, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
