VHS2

YIL135C
Regulator of septin dynamics; involved in the regulation of septin dynamics at bud neck after mitotic entry, likely by stabilizing septin structure; regulated at post-translational level by cell cycle dependent phosphorylation; likely phosphorylated by Cdc28p and dephosphorylated by Cdc14p before cytokinesis; high-copy suppressor of synthetic lethality of sis2 sit4 double mutant; VHS2 has a paralog, MLF3, that arose from the whole genome duplication

SHS1

SEP7, septin SHS1, YDL225W
Component of the septin ring that is required for cytokinesis; septins are GTP-binding proteins that assemble into rod-like hetero-oligomers that can associate with other rods to form filaments; septin rings at the mother-bud neck act as scaffolds for recruiting cell division factors and as barriers to prevent diffusion of specific proteins; undergoes sumoylation and phosphorylation during mitosis; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress

Synthetic Growth Defect

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in a significant growth defect under a given condition when combined in the same cell.

Vhs2 is a novel regulator of septin dynamics in budding yeast.

Cassani C, Raspelli E, Chiroli E, Fraschini R

In budding yeast, septins are assembled into structures that undergo dramatic changes during the cell cycle. The molecular mechanisms that drive these remodelings are not fully uncovered. In this study, we describe a characterization of Vhs2, a nonessential protein that revealed to be a new player in septin dynamics. In particular, we report that Vhs2 is important to maintain the ...

Phenotypic Enhancement

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or overexpression of one gene results in enhancement of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.
