- Standard Name
- EAP1 1 2
- Systematic Name
- YKL204W
- SGD ID
- SGD:S000001687
- Feature Type
- ORF , Verified
- Description
- eIF4E-associated protein, competes with eIF4G for binding to eIF4E; accelerates mRNA degradation by promoting decapping, facilitated by interaction with eIF4E; essential for Puf5p mediated repression; associates with Puf5p and Dhh1p; inhibits cap-dependent translation; functions independently of eIF4E to maintain genetic stability; plays a role in cell growth, implicated in the TOR signaling cascade 1 2 3 4

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
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
- Non-essential gene; null mutant shows decreased utilization of ammonium sulfate as nitrogen source, increased levels of unprocessed 35S pre-rRNA and decreased growth rate; reduction of function results in decreased autophagy under nitrogen starvation; in systematic studies, mutants show decreased anaerobic growth, increased levels of some amino acids, decreased endocytosis and sensitivity to benomyl, rapamycin (sirolimus), hydroxyurea, DMSO, Congo Red; overexpression causes increased mutation frequency

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.

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.
