Summary: Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity and ubiquitin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to potassium ion starvation; pexophagy; and vacuolar transport. Located in nucleus-vacuole junction and vacuole-isolation membrane contact site. Part of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III, type I and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III, type II. Orthologous to human PIK3R4 (phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

mutants lacking Vps15 display multiple phenotypes indicating impaired transcription elongation.
Title: Vps factors are required for efficient transcription elongation in budding yeast.
Gpa1 is present at endosomes, where it interacts directly with both Vps34 and Vps15 and stimulates increased production of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate.
Title: Activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase Vps34 by a G protein alpha subunit at the endosome.

NP_009655.2

EC 2.7.11.1

Serine/threonine protein kinase involved in vacuolar protein sorting; functions as a membrane-associated complex with Vps34p; active form recruits Vps34p to the Golgi membrane; interacts with the GDP-bound form of Gpa1p; myristoylated; a fraction is localized, with Vps34p, to nuclear pores at nucleus-vacuole junctions and may facilitate transcription elongation for genes positioned at the nuclear periphery
