NYV1 encodes a SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) protein that is involved in homotypic vacuole fusion (1, 5). Nyv1p forms a SNARE complex with Vam7p, Vam3p, and Vti1p to mediate vacuole docking and fusion (5, 6, 3) but overexpression of Vam7p allows the SNARE Ykt6p to substitute for Nyv1p in this SNARE complex (7). Nyv1p-mediated fusion is positively regulated by phosphatidlyinositide phosphates (8). Functionally, Nyv1p is classified as a v-SNARE although by sequence it belongs to the R-SNARE family of proteins (reviewed in 9). Nyv1p is sorted to the vacuolar membrane by the (AP)3 adaptin pathway via a longin domain present in its N-terminus (10). In addition to its role in vacuolar fusion, Nyv1p is also involved in the negative regulation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase Pmc1p (4) and Vid (vacuole import and degradation) vesicle trafficking to the vacuole (11). nyv1 null mutants do not show the vaculolar fragmentation seen with other SNARE mutants, possibly due to the redundancy of Nyv1p and Ykt6p (7). Mutants lacking nyv1 do have a shortened lifespan (12) and NYV1 overproducing cells are sensitive to calcium (4).
