DAM1

L000004420, YGR113W
Essential subunit of the Dam1 complex (aka DASH complex); cooperates with Duo1p to connect the DASH complex with the microtubules (MT); couples kinetochores to the force produced by MT depolymerization thereby aiding in chromosome segregation; Ipl1p target for regulating kinetochore-MT attachments
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

KAR3

OSR11, L000000888, YPR141C
Minus-end-directed microtubule motor; functions in mitosis and meiosis, localizes to the spindle pole body and localization is dependent on functional Cik1p, required for nuclear fusion during mating; potential Cdc28p substrate
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.

Yeast Dam1p is required to maintain spindle integrity during mitosis and interacts with the Mps1p kinase.

Jones MH, Bachant JB, Castillo AR, Giddings TH, Winey M

We have identified a mutant allele of the DAM1 gene in a screen for mutations that are lethal in combination with the mps1-1 mutation. MPS1 encodes an essential protein kinase that is required for duplication of the spindle pole body and for the spindle assembly checkpoint. Mutations in six different genes were found to be lethal in combination with mps1-1, ... [more]
