Gene

IRA1

Species
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Symbol
IRA1
Name
Inhibitory Regulator of the RAS-cAMP pathway
Synonyms
  • GLC1
  • PPD1
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables GTPase activator activity. Involved in adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and negative regulation of Ras protein signal transduction. Located in membrane. Used to study neurofibromatosis and neurofibromatosis 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Watson syndrome; autistic disorder; hematologic cancer (multiple); neurofibromatosis (multiple); and peripheral nervous system neoplasm (multiple). Orthologous to human NF1 (neurofibromin 1).
SGD Description
GTPase-activating protein; negatively regulates RAS by converting it from GTP- to the GDP-bound inactive form, required for reducing cAMP levels under nutrient limiting conditions, mediates membrane association of adenylate cyclase; mutations cause catalase T deficiency, defective glycogen synthesis and defective trehalose accumulation; IRA1 has a paralog, IRA2, that arose from the whole genome duplication; defects in human homolog NF1 are associated with neurofibromatosis
