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

ORM2Protein that mediates sphingolipid homeostasis; evolutionarily conserved, required for resistance to agents that induce unfolded protein response; Orm1p and Orm2p together control membrane biogenesis by coordinating lipid homeostasis with protein quality control; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; ORM2 has a paralog, ORM1, that arose from the whole genome duplication. (216 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LCB2
Component of serine palmitoyltransferase; responsible along with Lcb1p for the first committed step in sphingolipid synthesis, which is the condensation of serine with palmitoyl-CoA to form 3-ketosphinganine; Belongs to the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.

ORM1
Protein that mediates sphingolipid homeostasis; evolutionarily conserved, required for resistance to agents that induce unfolded protein response; Orm1p and Orm2p together control membrane biogenesis by coordinating lipid homeostasis with protein quality control; ORM1 has a paralog, ORM2, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

LCB1
Component of serine palmitoyltransferase; responsible along with Lcb2p for the first committed step in sphingolipid synthesis, which is the condensation of serine with palmitoyl-CoA to form 3-ketosphinganine.
   
 0.999
TSC3
Protein that stimulates the activity of serine palmitoyltransferase; involved in sphingolipid biosynthesis; Lcb1p and Lcb2p are the two components of serine palmitoyltransferase.
    
 0.997
SAC1
Phosphoinositide phosphatase SAC1; Phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PtdInsP) phosphatase; involved in hydrolysis of PtdIns[4]P in the early and medial Golgi; regulated by interaction with Vps74p; ER localized transmembrane protein which cycles through the Golgi; involved in protein trafficking and processing, secretion, and cell wall maintenance; regulates sphingolipid biosynthesis through the modulation of PtdIns(4)P metabolism.
    
 0.983
YPK1
Serine/threonine-protein kinase YPK1; S/T protein kinase; phosphorylates, downregulates flippase activator Fpk1p; inactivates Orm1p and Orm2p by phosphorylation in response to compromised sphingolipid synthesis; involved in the TORC-dependent phosphorylation of ribosomal proteins Rps6a/b (S6); mutations affect receptor-mediated endocytosis and sphingolipid-mediated and cell integrity signaling pathways; human homolog SGK1 can complement a null mutant; human homolog SGK2 can complement a ypk1 ypk2 double mutant; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase famil [...]

YPK2
Serine/threonine-protein kinase YPK2/YKR2; Protein kinase similar to S/T protein kinase Ypk1p; functionally redundant with YPK1 at the genetic level; participates in a signaling pathway required for optimal cell wall integrity; involved in the TORC-dependent phosphorylation of ribosomal proteins Rps6a/b (S6); human homolog SGK2 can complement a ypk1 ypk2 double mutant.
   
 
 0.872
LAG1
Ceramide synthase component; involved in synthesis of ceramide from C26(acyl)-coenzyme A and dihydrosphingosine or phytosphingosine, functionally equivalent to Lac1p; forms ER foci upon DNA replication stress; homolog of human CERS2, a tumor metastasis suppressor gene whose silencing enhances invasion/metastasis of prostate cancer cells; LAG1 has a paralog, LAC1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
    
 
 0.854
AUR1
Inositol phosphorylceramide synthase catalytic subunit AUR1; Phosphatidylinositol:ceramide phosphoinositol transferase; required for sphingolipid synthesis; can mutate to confer aureobasidin A resistance; also known as IPC synthase.
    
 
 0.830
LAC1
Ceramide synthase component; involved in synthesis of ceramide from C26(acyl)-coenzyme A and dihydrosphingosine or phytosphingosine, functionally equivalent to Lag1p; LAC1 has a paralog, LAG1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
