SKN7

BRY1, POS9, kinase-regulated stress-responsive transcription factor SKN7, L000001908, YHR206W
Nuclear response regulator and transcription factor; physically interacts with the Tup1-Cyc8 complex and recruits Tup1p to its targets; part of a branched two-component signaling system; required for optimal induction of heat-shock genes in response to oxidative stress; involved in osmoregulation; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; SKN7 has a paralog, HMS2, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

CRZ1

HAL8, TCN1, DNA-binding transcription factor CRZ1, L000004202, YNL027W
Transcription factor, activates transcription of stress response genes; nuclear localization is positively regulated by calcineurin-mediated dephosphorylation; rapidly localizes to the nucleus under blue light stress; can be activated in stochastic pulses of nuclear localization in response to calcium
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

The eukaryotic response regulator Skn7p regulates calcineurin signaling through stabilization of Crz1p.

Williams KE, Cyert MS

To survive ionic, pH and pheromone stress, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae activates signaling through the Ca2+-activated phosphatase calcineurin to the transcription factor Crz1p/Tcn1p. We show that the overexpression of SKN7, a response-regulator transcription factor, activates transcription from a calcineurin/Crz1p-dependent response element (CDRE). Ca2+-induced, calcineurin/Crz1p-dependent activation of several genes is reduced in skn7 mutants. Skn7p modulates CDRE-dependent transcription by affecting Crz1p ... [more]

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.
