Correlation | pval | ORF | Gene | Zygosity | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
0.238 | 2.19E-44 | YFL037W | TUB2 | het | Beta-tubulin; associates with alpha-tubulin (Tub1p and Tub3p) to form tubulin dimer, which polymerizes to form microtubules; mutation in human ortholog is associated with congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles (CFEOM) with polymicrogyria |
0.231 | 4.83E-42 | YJR013W | GPI14 | het | Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-alpha 1,4 mannosyltransferase I, involved in GPI anchor biosynthesis, requires Pbn1p for function; homolog of mammalian PIG-M |
0.231 | 5.53E-42 | YIR008C | PRI1 | het | Subunit of DNA primase, which is required for DNA synthesis and double-strand break repair |
0.218 | 2.87E-37 | YER052C | HOM3 | hom | Aspartate kinase (L-aspartate 4-P-transferase); cytoplasmic enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the common pathway for methionine and threonine biosynthesis; expression regulated by Gcn4p and the general control of amino acid synthesis |
0.199 | 2.35E-31 | YGR193C | PDX1 | hom | Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3)-binding protein (E3BP) of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex, plays a structural role in the complex by binding and positioning E3 to the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2) core |
0.190 | 1.36E-28 | YIR012W | SQT1 | het | Protein involved in 60S ribosomal subunit assembly or modification; contains multiple WD repeats; interacts with Qsr1p in a two-hybrid assay; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress |
0.188 | 4.29E-28 | YML129C | COX14 | hom | Mitochondrial membrane protein, involved in translational regulation of Cox1p and assembly of cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV); associates with complex IV assembly intermediates and complex III/complex IV supercomplexes |
0.187 | 7.41E-28 | YIL022W | TIM44 | het | Essential component of the Translocase of the Inner Mitochondrial membrane (TIM23 complex); tethers the import motor and regulatory factors (PAM complex) to the translocation channel (Tim23p-Tim17p core complex) |
0.187 | 1.15E-27 | YJL019W | MPS3 | het | Nuclear envelope protein required for SPB insertion; initiation of SPB duplication and nuclear fusion; acetylation of Mps3p by Eco1p regulates its role in nuclear organization; localizes to the SPB half bridge and at telomeres during meiosis; required with Ndj1p and Csm4p for meiotic bouquet formation and telomere-led rapid prophase movement; N-terminal acetylated by Eco1p |
0.176 | 8.29E-25 | YHR008C | SOD2 | hom | Mitochondrial manganese superoxide dismutase, protects cells against oxygen toxicity; phosphorylated |
