Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase/phosphatase complex, tsl1 variant Overview

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.


Summary
Catalyzes the production of trehalose from glucose-6-phosphate and UDP-glucose in a two step process. The Tps1 subunit is a trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) and catalyses the production of alpha,alpha-trehalose 6-phosphate from UDP-glucose and D-glucose 6-phosphate. Tps2 acts as a trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase (TPP) to release trehalose as a final product. Tsl1 is a regulatory subunit and may act to stabilize the complex.
GO Slim Terms

The yeast GO Slim terms are higher level terms that best represent the major S. cerevisiae biological processes, functions, and cellular components. The GO Slim terms listed here are the broader parent terms for the specific terms to which this gene product is annotated, and thus represent the more general processes, functions, and components in which it is involved.

glycosyltransferase activity, hydrolase activity, phosphatase activity, transferase activity, biosynthetic process, carbohydrate metabolic process, oligosaccharide metabolic process
