TPS1 [YBR126C]
Alpha,alpha-trehalose-phosphate synthase [UDP-forming] 56 kDa subunit; Synthase subunit of trehalose-6-P synthase/phosphatase complex; synthesizes the storage carbohydrate trehalose, which is critically important for survival of long-term desiccation; also found in a monomeric form; expression is induced by the stress response and repressed by the Ras-cAMP pathway; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress and in response to prolonged exposure to boric acid
Synonyms: TPS1, TPS1p, B2KKZ1, B5LYT3, E1ABC8 ...
