CYC7 — Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288c

Summary

YEL039C, also known as CYC7 or CYC1, encodes a protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288c on chromosome V. The product possesses electron transfer activity and heme binding, and is localized to the mitochondrial envelope lumen, mitochondria, cytoplasm, and extracellular space. The gene is associated with mitochondrial electron transport from cytochrome c to oxygen and from ubiquinol to cytochrome c, as well as cytochrome c anabolism, heme transport, ATP transport, and mitochondrial biogenesis. It is linked to fruit development, response to glucocorticoid, blood clotting, and xenobiotic, fatty-acyl-CoA, and maltose metabolism. Associations include oxidative stress, and phenotypes such as increased viability and competitive fitness, decreased anaerobic growth and toxin resistance, and abnormal chemical compound accumulation. Related genes in other species support these connections.
