Gene Description

lys2 (SPAC343.16; UniProt Q9UT74), the fission yeast ortholog of S. cerevisiae LYS4, encodes mitochondrial homoaconitase (EC 4.2.1.36), a [4Fe-4S] aconitase-family hydratase. It hydrates cis-homoaconitate to homoisocitrate in the alpha-aminoadipate pathway of lysine biosynthesis. The cloned gene complements the classical lys2-97 auxotroph and is used as a selectable marker. It is mitochondrial in a genome-wide screen.
