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.


Summary
Transcriptional coactivator; binds RNA polymerase II transcription factors to activate gene expression in response to carbon catabolites; subunit of the CCAAT-binding transcription factor complex

Cellular Component

Manually Curated

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 mutants grow slowly, have decreased ethanol tolerance, increased lifespan under caloric restriction, respiration defects, decreased filamentous growth, cannot utilize some nitrogen sources, small cell size and abnormally elongated buds; null is also sensitive to UV, dessication, and anoxia; homozygous diploid null has sporulation defects; overexpression slows vegetative growth
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. Click "Interaction Details" to view all interaction annotations and evidence for this locus, including an interaction visualization.

Summary
HAP4 encodes an alpha helix transcription factor that provides the principal activation function of the heteromeric HAP2/3/4/5 complex which binds CCAAT boxes upstream of genes involved in respiration and oxidative phosphorylation. The Hap2/3/4/5 complex plays a central role in converting cells from fermentative to respiratory growth following the diauxic shift by inducing genes required for mitochondrial function upon glucose depletion. The HAP2/3/4/5 complex stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis in high oxygen and represses hypoxic genes. Hap2p, Hap3p, and Hap5p are constitutively expressed and together form a DNA-binding complex. Hap4p is induced upon glucose depletion, and provides the activation domain of the complex. Increased expression of Hap4 alone yields induction of genes under regulatory control of the HAP2/3/4/5 complex.

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).
