CDC24

CLS4, Rho family guanine nucleotide exchange factor CDC24, L000000262, YAL041W
Guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Cdc42p; also known as a GEF or GDP-release factor; required for polarity establishment and maintenance, and mutants have morphological defects in bud formation and shmooing; relocalizes from nucleus to cytoplasm upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

CSE4

CSL2, centromeric DNA-binding histone H3-like protein CSE4, L000002719, YKL049C
Centromere protein that resembles histone H3; associated with promoters, accessible chromatin and RNA polymerase II-bound regions; phosphorylated Cse4p associates with centromeres; required for proper kinetochore function; levels regulated by E3 ubiquitin ligase Psh1p; phosphorylation of Cse4p may destabilize defective kinetochores to promote bi-orientation; ubiquitination of N terminus regulates Cse4p proteolysis for faithful chromosome segregation; human CENP-A homolog
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

Characterization of synthetic-lethal mutants reveals a role for the Saccharomyces cerevisiae guanine-nucleotide exchange factor Cdc24p in vacuole function and Na+ tolerance.

White WH, Johnson DI

Cdc24p is the guanine-nucleotide exchange factor for the Cdc42p GTPase, which controls cell polarity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To identify new genes that may affect cell polarity, we characterized six UV-induced csl (CDC24 synthetic-lethal) mutants that exhibited synthetic-lethality with cdc24-4ls at 23 degrees. Five mutants were not complemented by plasmid-borne CDC42, RSR1, BUD5, BEM1, BEM2, BEM3 or CLA4 genes, which are ... [more]
