Gene Ontology Details

Gene Ontology

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code. SGD has manually curated and high-throughput GO Annotations, both derived from the literature, as well as computational, or predicted, annotations. Click "Gene Ontology Details" to view all GO information and evidence for this locus as well as biological processes it shares with other genes.

Phenotype Details

Phenotype

Phenotype annotations for a gene are curated single mutant phenotypes that require an observable (e.g., "cell shape"), a qualifier (e.g., "abnormal"), a mutant type (e.g., null), strain background, and a reference. In addition, annotations are classified as classical genetics or high-throughput (e.g., large scale survey, systematic mutation set). Whenever possible, allele information and additional details are provided. Click "Phenotype Details" to view all phenotype annotations and evidence for this locus as well as phenotypes it shares with other genes.


Summary
MSR1/YHR091C is a non-essential gene; null mutants are viable but exhibit a range of phenotypic changes including altered metal resistance, absent mitochondrial genome maintenance, absent or decreased respiratory growth rate, decreased cell size, abnormal chemical compound accumulation, decreased chronological lifespan, decreased competitive fitness, increased heat sensitivity, abnormal mitochondrial morphology, increased oxidative stress resistance, altered resistance to chemicals, decreased toxin resistance, decreased utilization of carbon sources, abnormal vacuolar morphology, and decreased vegetative growth rate. Reduction of function mutants show absent mitochondrial genome maintenance and absent respiratory growth.
Disease Details

Disease

Disease Annotations consist of three mandatory components: a gene product, a term from the Disease Ontology (DO) controlled vocabulary and an evidence code. SGD provides manually curated DO Annotations derived from the literature. Click "Disease Details" to view all Disease information and evidence for this locus as well as diseases it shares with other genes.


Summary
Yeast MSR1 is homologous to human RARS2 and has been used to study mutations found in patients with pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 6 and early-onset non-syndromic epileptic encephalopathy
Interaction Details

Interaction

Interaction annotations are curated by BioGRID and include physical or genetic interactions observed between at least two genes. An interaction annotation is composed of the interaction type, name of the interactor, assay type (e.g., Two-Hybrid), annotation type (e.g., manual or high-throughput), and a reference, as well as other experimental details. Click "Interaction Details" to view all interaction annotations and evidence for this locus, including an interaction visualization.


Summary
Msr1p interacts physically with proteins involved in transcription elongation; MSR1 interacts genetically with genes involved in cell cycle regulation; the msr1 null mutant is viable, the null mutant of paralog ydr341c is inviable, the msr1 ydr341c double mutant has not been annotated for phenotype

Expression Details

Expression

Expression data are derived from records contained in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and are first log2 transformed and normalized. Referenced datasets may contain one or more condition(s), and as a result there may be a greater number of conditions than datasets represented in a single clickable histogram bar. The histogram division at 0.0 separates the down-regulated (green) conditions and datasets from those that are up-regulated (red). Click "Expression Details" to view all expression annotations and details for this locus, including a visualization of genes that share a similar expression pattern.
