Abstract excerpt
Endosomal Na+/H+ exchangers are important for salt and osmotolerance, vacuolar pH regulation, and endosomal trafficking. We show that the C terminus of yeast Nhx1 interacts with Gyp6, a GTPase-activating protein for the Ypt/Rab family of GTPases, and that Gyp6 colocalizes with Nhx1 in the endosomal/prevacuolar compartment (PVC). The gyp6 null mutant exhibits novel phenotypes consistent with loss of negative...
