MPH1

YIR002C
3'-5' DNA helicase involved in error-free bypass of DNA lesions; binds flap DNA in error-free bypass pathway, stimulates activity of Rad27p and Dna2p; prevents crossovers between ectopic sequences by removing substrates for Mus81-Mms4 or Rad1-Rad10 cleavage; similar to FANCM human Fanconi anemia complementation group protein that with MHF complex is involved in stabilizing and remodeling blocked replication forks; member of SF2 DExD/H superfamily of helicases

MUS81

SLX3, L000004650, YDR386W
Subunit of structure-specific Mms4p-Mus81p endonuclease; cleaves branched DNA; involved in DNA repair, replication fork stability, and joint molecule formation/resolution during meiotic recombination; promotes template switching during break-induced replication (BIR), causing non-reciprocal translocations (NRTs); helix-hairpin-helix protein; phosphorylation of non-catalytic subunit Mms4p by Cdc28p and Cdcp during mitotic cell cycle activates function of Mms4p-Mus81p

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.

Dosage Mutator Genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: A Novel Mutator Mode-of-action of the Mph1 DNA Helicase.

Mutations that cause genome instability are considered important predisposing events that contribute to initiation and progression of cancer. Genome instability arises either due to defects in genes that cause an increased mutation rate (mutator phenotype) or defects in genes that cause chromosome instability (CIN). To extend the catalogue of genome instability genes, we systematically explored the effects of gene over-expression ... [more]

Throughput

  • Low Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: mutation frequency (APO:0000198)

Additional Notes

  • Deletion of SGS1 or MUS81 led to small but significant decreases in the dMutator phenotype of MPH1 overexpression, while deletion of SRS2 led to a greater than 5-fold decrease in mutation rate
