SPA2

FUS6, PEA1, PPF1, L000001989, YLL021W
Component of the polarisome; functions in actin cytoskeletal organization during polarized growth; acts as a scaffold for Mkk1p and Mpk1p cell wall integrity signaling components; potential Cdc28p substrate; coding sequence contains length polymorphisms in different strains; SPA2 has a paralog, SPH1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

GIC2

L000003314, YDR309C
Redundant rho-like GTPase Cdc42p effector; involved in initiation of budding and cellular polarization; interacts with Cdc42p via the Cdc42/Rac-interactive binding (CRIB) domain and with PI(4,5)P2 via a polybasic region; GIC2 has a paralog, GIC1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Dosage Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene causes lethality in a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.

Gic2p may link activated Cdc42p to components involved in actin polarization, including Bni1p and Bud6p (Aip3p).

Jaquenoud M, Peter M

Gic2p is a Cdc42p effector which functions during cytoskeletal organization at bud emergence and in response to pheromones, but it is not understood how Gic2p interacts with the actin cytoskeleton. Here we show that Gic2p displayed multiple genetic interactions with Bni1p, Bud6p (Aip3p), and Spa2p, suggesting that Gic2p may regulate their function in vivo. In support of this idea, Gic2p ...

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.
