What's a GeneRIF?

The MTH1 gene coding for transcription factor in glucose signaling was mutated in a pyruvate decarboxylase (Pdc)-deficient S. cerevisiae expressing heterologous 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) biosynthetic genes. The engineered S. cerevisiae strain consumed glucose and galactose simultaneously and produced 2,3-BD as a major product.
Title: Enhanced production of 2,3-butanediol in pyruvate decarboxylase-deficient Saccharomyces cerevisiae through optimizing ratio of glucose/galactose.
Mth1 and Std1, which are downstream effectors of the Snf3/Rgt2 pathway, were required for viability through mitochondrial function but not fermentative metabolism
Title: Disruption of Snf3/Rgt2 glucose sensors decreases lifespan and caloric restriction effectiveness through Mth1/Std1 by adjusting mitochondrial efficiency in yeast.
Data show that Pph3-Psy2 targets the glucose signal transducer protein Mth1, which is required for the dephosphorylation of Rgt1 upon glucose withdrawal, a critical event in the repression of HXT genes, which encode glucose transporters.
Title: Psy2 targets the PP4 family phosphatase Pph3 to dephosphorylate Mth1 and repress glucose transporter gene expression.
Mth1 is a transcriptional corepressor that facilitates the recruitment of Ssn6-Tup1 by Rgt1.
Title: Mth1 regulates the interaction between the Rgt1 repressor and the Ssn6-Tup1 corepressor complex by modulating PKA-dependent phosphorylation of Rgt1.
MTH1 coding sequence has a large capacity for nonsense mutations.
Title: Reciprocal sign epistasis between frequently experimentally evolved adaptive mutations causes a rugged fitness landscape.
Deletion of the MTH1 gene increased cell growth compared with the wild-type when cells were grown in a medium containing galactose and with hygromycin in yeast cells.
Title: Saccharomyces cerevisiae glucose signalling regulator Mth1p regulates the organellar Na+/H+ exchanger Nhx1p.
Mth1 is the primary regulator; Std1 serves to buffer the response to glucose.
Title: Asymmetric signal transduction through paralogs that comprise a genetic switch for sugar sensing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
RGT2-1 promotes ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of Mth1 and Std1 regardless of the presence of glucose.
Title: Biochemical evidence for glucose-independent induction of HXT expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

NP_010563.3

Negative regulator of the glucose-sensing signal transduction pathway; required for repression of transcription by Rgt1p; interacts with Rgt1p and the Snf3p and Rgt2p glucose sensors; phosphorylated by Yck1p, triggering Mth1p degradation; MTH1 has a paralog, STD1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
