NVJ1

Gene
NVJ1
Protein
Nucleus-vacuole junction protein 1
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain YJM789)
Length
321 amino acids
Function
Involved in the formation of nucleus-vacuole (NV) junctions during piecemeal microautophagy of the nucleus (PMN). NV junctions are interorganelle interfaces mediated by NVJ1 in the nuclear envelope and VAC8 on the vacuole membrane. Together, NVJ1 and VAC8 form Velcro-like patches through which teardrop-like portions of the nucleus are pinched off into the vacuolar lumen and degraded by the PMN process. Acts also as an outer-nuclear membrane receptor for OSH1 and TSC13 (By similarity).
