The Ole1p sequence is similar to homologs in rat and human (SCD1) over the majority of the protein, including a cluster of histidine residues that coordinate the binding of a diiron-oxo prosthetic group within the catalytic site (reviewed in 5). The rat and yeast proteins are similar enough that exogenously expressed rat protein can rescue an ole1 null mutant (3). However, Ole1p has an additional C-terminal, 113 amino acid extension (relative to the rat protein), which encodes a cytochrome b5-like domain not found in mammalian desaturases. In animal cells, cytochrome b5 is thought to be the electron donor for fatty acid desaturation. In contrast, the yeast cytochrome b5 (Cyb5) is dispensable for the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids because Ole1p contains inherent electron donor activity. The rat protein is unable to rescue an ole1 cyb5 double mutant (9).OLE1 is highly regulated at the levels of both transcription and mRNA stability (reviewed in 5 and 6). OLE1 transcription is decreased in response to high fatty acid levels (7, 8) and increased in response to low oxygen (10) and low temperature (11). Much of the transcriptional regulation is mediated by two homologous ER membrane-bound transcription factors, Spt23p and Mga2p. In response to stimuli, both Spt23p and Mga2p are activated by ubiquitin-dependent processing into their soluble forms, and then targeted to the nucleus (12, 13, 14). Independent of the transcriptional regulation, OLE1 mRNA is also stabilized under fatty acid free conditions and destabilized when fatty acids are added to the growth medium (15). Mga2p, but not Spt23p, contributes to the regulation of OLE1 mRNA stability (16).", "date_edited": "2010-05-10"}, "literature_overview": {"primary_count": 93, "additional_count": 145, "review_count": 67, "go_count": 8, "phenotype_count": 10, "disease_count": 0, "interaction_count": 70, "regulation_count": 11, "ptm_count": 8, "funComplement_count": 0, "htp_count": 25, "total_count": 389}, "disease_overview": {"manual_disease_terms": [], "htp_disease_terms": [], "computational_annotation_count": 0, "date_last_reviewed": null}, "ecnumbers": [{"display_name": "1.14.19.1", "link": "/ecnumber/EC:1.14.19.1"}], "URS_ID": null, "main_strain": "S288C", "genetic_position": -37.0, "regulation_overview": {"regulator_count": 19, "target_count": 0, "paragraph": {"text": "OLE1/YGL055W promoter is bound by Fkh1p, Rfx1p, Tfc7p, and Xbp1p in response to heat; OLE1 transcription is downregulated by Nab3p; OLE1 transcription is regulated by Sfp1p in response to stress; OLE1 transcription is upregulated by Yap5p in response to iron and by Mga2p in response to iron starvation, and downregulated by Ixr1p in response to hypoxia and by Znf1p during xylose fermentation", "date_edited": "2025-03-12", "references": [{"id": 1967052, "display_name": "Romero AM, et al.

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
OLE1/YGL055W is an essential gene; null mutant is viable with oleic acid supplementation; heat-sensitive mutant requires oleic acid at restrictive temperature but displays abnormal distribution of mitochondria even at permissive temperature; overexpression confers increased resistance to ethanol, increased invasive growth

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.

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).
