PIP3, PSO9, L000002907, YLR288C
DNA damage and meiotic pachytene checkpoint protein; subunit of a heterotrimeric complex (Rad17p-Mec3p-Ddc1p) that forms a sliding clamp, loaded onto partial duplex DNA by a clamp loader complex; homolog of human and S. pombe Hus1

DPB11

protein kinase activating protein DPB11, L000003001, YJL090C
DNA replication initiation protein; loads DNA pol epsilon onto pre-replication complexes at origins; checkpoint sensor recruited to stalled replication forks by the checkpoint clamp complex where it activates Mec1p; along with Rfa1p, binds to ultrafine anaphase bridges in mitotic cells and prevents accumulation of chromatin bridges by stimulating the Mec1p kinase and suppressing homologous recombination; ortholog of human TopBP1; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress

Phenotypic Enhancement

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

Suppression of genome instability by redundant S-phase checkpoint pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Myung K, Kolodner RD

Cancer cells show increased genome rearrangements, although it is unclear what defects cause these rearrangements. Previous studies have implicated the Saccharomyces cerevisiae replication checkpoint in the suppression of spontaneous genome rearrangements. In the present study, low doses of methyl methane sulfonate that activate the intra-S checkpoint but not the G1 or G2 DNA damage checkpoints were found to cause increased ... [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.
