KRE6

CWH48, beta-glucan synthesis-associated protein KRE6, L000000915, YPR159W
Type II integral membrane protein; required for beta-1,6 glucan biosynthesis; putative beta-glucan synthase; localizes to ER, plasma membrane, sites of polarized growth and secretory vesicles; functionally redundant with Skn1p; KRE6 has a paralog, SKN1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RTN1

YDR233C
Reticulon protein; stabilizes membrane curvature; involved in nuclear pore assembly and maintenance of tubular ER morphology; mutant overexpressing RTN1 shows increase in tubular ER; interacts with exocyst subunit Sec6p, Yip3p, and Sbh1p; more abundant than Rtn2p; member of the RTNLA subfamily; mutants have reduced phosphatidylserine transfer between the ER and mitochondria; RTN1 has a paralog, RTN2, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Lethality

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

A genetic interaction network containing approximately 1000 genes and approximately 4000 interactions was mapped by crossing mutations in 132 different query genes into a set of approximately 4700 viable gene yeast deletion mutants and scoring the double mutant progeny for fitness defects. Network connectivity was predictive of function because interactions often occurred among functionally related genes, and similar patterns of ... [more]
