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

Subunit of heterotrimeric Replication Protein A (RPA); RPA is a highly conserved single-stranded DNA binding protein involved in DNA replication, repair, and recombination; RPA protects against inappropriate telomere recombination, and upon telomere uncapping, prevents cell proliferation by a checkpoint-independent pathway; role in DNA catenation/decatenation pathway of chromosome disentangling; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia

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.

Publication

Yeast pip3/mec3 mutants fail to delay entry into S phase and to slow DNA replication in response to DNA damage, and they define a functional link between Mec3 and DNA primase.

Longhese MP, Fraschini R, Plevani P, Lucchini G

The catalytic DNA primase subunit of the DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex is encoded by the essential PRI1 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To identify factors that functionally interact with yeast DNA primase in living cells, we developed a genetic screen for mutants that are lethal at the permissive temperature in a cold-sensitive pril-2 genetic background. Twenty-four recessive mutations belonging to seven ... [more]
