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

YPT53GTP-binding protein YPT53; Stress-induced Rab family GTPase; required for vacuolar protein sorting and endocytosis; involved in ionic stress tolerance; similar to Vps21p and Ypt52p; functional homolog of Vps21p; mammalian Rab5 homolog; YPT53 has a paralog, VPS21, that arose from the whole genome duplication. (220 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
VPS33
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 33; ATP-binding protein that is a subunit of the HOPS and CORVET complexes; essential for protein sorting, vesicle docking, and fusion at the vacuole; binds to SNARE domains.
    
 
 0.995
MRS6
Rab proteins geranylgeranyltransferase component A; Rab escort protein; forms a complex with the Ras-like small GTPase Ypt1p that is required for the prenylation of Ypt1p by protein geranylgeranyltransferase type II (Bet2p-Bet4p); sequence similarity to mammalian choroideraemia gene; relative distribution to the nucleus increases upon DNA replication stress.
   
 0.908
VPS9
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 9; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) and ubiquitin receptor; involved in vesicle-mediated vacuolar transport, including Golgi-endosome trafficking and sorting through the multivesicular body (MVB); stimulates the intrinsic guanine nucleotide exchange activity of Rab family members (Vps21p/Ypt52p/Ypt53p); partially redundant with GEF MUK1; required for localization of the CORVET complex to endosomes; similar to mammalian ras inhibitors; contains a Ub-interacting CUE domain.
    
 
 0.899
MUK1
Protein MUK1; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF); involved in vesicle-mediated vacuolar transport, including Golgi-endosome trafficking and sorting through the multivesicular body (MVB); specifically stimulates the intrinsic guanine nucleotide exchange activity of Rab family members (Vps21p/Ypt52p/Ypt53p); partially redundant with GEF VPS9; required for localization of the CORVET complex to endosomes; contains a VPS9 domain.
   
 
 0.880
VPS21
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 21; Endosomal Rab family GTPase; required for endocytic transport and sorting of vacuolar hydrolases; required for endosomal localization of the CORVET complex; required with YPT52 for MVB biogenesis and sorting; involved in autophagy and ionic stress tolerance; geranylgeranylation required for membrane association; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; mammalian Rab5 homolog; VPS21 has a paralog, YPT53, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
  
0.872
YPT52
GTP-binding protein YPT52; Endosomal Rab family GTPase; required for vacuolar protein sorting, endocytosis and multivesicular body (MVB) biogenesis and sorting; required for localization of the CORVET complex to endosomes; involved in autophagy and ionic stress tolerance; similar to Vps21p and Ypt53p; mammalian Rab5 homolog; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress.
  
 
0.820
PEP7
Adaptor protein involved in vesicle-mediated vacuolar protein sorting; multivalent adaptor protein; facilitates vesicle-mediated vacuolar protein sorting by ensuring high-fidelity vesicle docking and fusion, which are essential for targeting of vesicles to the endosome; required for vacuole inheritance.
   
 
 0.818
GDI1
Rab GDP-dissociation inhibitor; GDP dissociation inhibitor; regulates vesicle traffic in secretory pathways by regulating the dissociation of GDP from the Sec4/Ypt/rab family of GTP binding proteins.
   
 
 0.764
BCY1
Regulatory subunit of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA); PKA is a component of a signaling pathway that controls a variety of cellular processes, including metabolism, cell cycle, stress response, stationary phase, and sporulation.
   
 
 0.749
VPS8
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 8; Membrane-binding component of the CORVET complex; involved in endosomal vesicle tethering and fusion in the endosome to vacuole protein targeting pathway; interacts with Vps21p; contains RING finger motif.
