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.

Complex

Macromolecular complex annotations are imported from the Complex Portal. These annotations have been derived from physical molecular interaction evidence extracted from the literature and cross-referenced in the entry, or by curator inference from information on homologs in closely related species or by inference from scientific background.


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
Non-essential gene; null mutant fails to respire and accumulates less cardiolipin and PE in mitochondria; homozygous null mutant has shorter chronological lifespan; in large-scale studies, null mutant has reduced competitive fitness in a variety of media; null mutant displays sensitivity to heat and ethanol, mitochondrial genome instability, and increased chitin deposition
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 YTA12 is homologous to human AFG3L2 and SPG7, and has been used to study spinocerebellar ataxia type 28, hereditary spastic paraplegia, and hereditary optic atrophy
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.

Summary
YTA12 encodes a mitochondrial ATP-dependent metallopeptidase. Yta12p forms a heterooligomeric protein complex with Afg3p called the m-AAA protease complex, which is composed of multiple copies of Afg3p and Yta12p and localized in the mitochondrial inner membrane. The m-AAA complex mediates the turnover of misfolded and nonassembled polypeptides, acting as a quality control system that ensures proper folding and functionality of protein complexes embedded in the mitochondrial membrane and, therefore, is essential for respiratory competence. The m-AAA complex is also required for processing of the the mitochondrial ribosomal protein MrpL32p, indicating that Afg3p and Yta12p play a role in regulation of mitochondrial translation. Human homologs of AFG3 and YTA12, AFG3L2 and SPG7 (paraplegin), respectively, are implicated in etiology of spinocerebellar ataxias and the expression of both human SPG7 and AFG3L2 complements yeast yta12 afg3 double mutation.

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).
