Gene Description

Pis1 (YPR113W) is the CDP-diacylglycerol--inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase (phosphatidylinositol synthase, EC 2.7.8.11) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, an essential polytopic membrane enzyme of the CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase family. It transfers the phosphatidyl group of CDP-diacylglycerol to myo-inositol, releasing CMP, and is the sole route to phosphatidylinositol, the precursor of phosphoinositides, inositol sphingolipids and GPI anchors. Activity requires Mn2+ or Mg2+, is constitutively expressed, and in vivo is limited mainly by myo-inositol availability. Pis1 activity is found in the ER (microsomes), the Golgi and the cytosolic face of the mitochondrial outer membrane.
