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.

ABC ATPase signature helices in Rad50 link nucleotide state to Mre11 interface for DNA repair.

The Rad50 ABC-ATPase complex with Mre11 nuclease is essential for dsDNA break repair, telomere maintenance and ataxia telangiectasia-mutated kinase checkpoint signaling. How Rad50 affects Mre11 functions and how ABC-ATPases communicate nucleotide binding and ligand states across long distances and among protein partners are questions that have remained obscure. Here, structures of Mre11-Rad50 complexes define the Mre11 2-helix Rad50 binding domain ... [more]

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: vegetative growth (APO:0000106)

Additional Notes

  • Interactor A: unspecified, allele name: mre11-RRR
  • Interactor B: null
  • the exo1 null mutation exacerbates the slow growth phenotype as well as the IR, CPT, UV and HU sensitivities of mre11-RRRR cells
