SIR2

MAR1, NAD-dependent histone deacetylase SIR2, L000001895, YDL042C
Conserved NAD+ dependent histone deacetylase of the Sirtuin family; involved in regulation of lifespan; plays roles in silencing at HML, HMR, telomeres, and the rDNA locus; negatively regulates initiation of DNA replication; functions as a regulator of autophagy like mammalian homolog SIRT1, and also of mitophagy; SIR2 has a paralog, HST1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

MRC1

YCL060C, chromatin-modulating protein MRC1, YCL061C
S-phase checkpoint protein required for DNA replication; couples DNA helicase and DNA polymerase; interacts with and stabilizes Pol2p at stalled replication forks during stress, where it forms a pausing complex with Tof1p and is phosphorylated by Mec1p; with Hog1p defines a novel S-phase checkpoint that permits eukaryotic cells to prevent conflicts between DNA replication and transcription; protects uncapped telomeres; degradation via Dia2p help cells resume cell cycle

Phenotypic Suppression

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

Publication

More than 10% of yeast genes are related to genome stability and influence cellular senescence via rDNA maintenance.

Saka K, Takahashi A, Sasaki M, Kobayashi T

Genome instability triggers cellular senescence and is a common cause of cancer. The ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA), due to their repetitive structure, form a fragile site with frequent rearrangements. To identify eukaryotic factors that connect reduced genome stability to senescence we screened 4,876 strains of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae deletion library for aberrant rDNA and found 708 genes that contribute to ...
