STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
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.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

YEH1Sterol esterase 1; Steryl ester hydrolase; one of three gene products (Yeh1p, Yeh2p, Tgl1p) responsible for steryl ester hydrolase activity and involved in sterol homeostasis; localized to lipid particle membranes; YEH1 has a paralog, YEH2, that arose from the whole genome duplication. (573 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
FAT1
Very long chain fatty acyl-CoA synthetase and fatty acid transporter; activates imported fatty acids with a preference for very long lengths (C20-C26); has a separate function in the transport of long chain fatty acids.
    
 
 0.875
TGL5
Lipase 5; Bifunctional triacylglycerol lipase and LPA acyltransferase; lipid particle-localized triacylglycerol (TAG) lipase involved in triacylglycerol mobilization; catalyzes acylation of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA); potential Cdc28p substrate; TGL5 has a paralog, TGL4, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
     
 0.875
TGL3
Lipase 3; Bifunctional triacylglycerol lipase and LPE acyltransferase; major lipid particle-localized triacylglycerol (TAG) lipase; catalyzes acylation of lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), a function which is essential for sporulation; protein level and stability of Tgl3p are markedly reduced in the absence of lipid droplets; required with Tgl4p for timely bud formation.
  
  
 0.844
TGL4
Lipase 4; Multifunctional lipase/hydrolase/phospholipase; triacylglycerol lipase, steryl ester hydrolase, and Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2; catalyzes acyl-CoA dependent acylation of LPA to PA; required with Tgl3p for timely bud formation; phosphorylated and activated by Cdc28p; TGL4 has a paralog, TGL5, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
     
 0.841
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.
   
 
 0.829
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.
   
  
 0.780
ERG7
Lanosterol synthase; an essential enzyme that catalyzes the cyclization of squalene 2,3-epoxide, a step in ergosterol biosynthesis; human LSS functionally complements the lethality of the erg7 null mutation; Belongs to the terpene cyclase/mutase family.
   
 
 0.723
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.
   
  
 0.714
TGL1
Sterol esterase TGL1; Steryl ester hydrolase; one of three gene products (Yeh1p, Yeh2p, Tgl1p) responsible for steryl ester hydrolase activity and involved in sterol homeostasis; localized to lipid particle membranes.
    
 
0.649
CRM1
Exportin-1; Major karyopherin; involved in export of proteins, RNAs, and ribosomal subunits from the nucleus; exportin.
   
   0.640
