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.

A role for the Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATX1 gene in copper trafficking and iron transport.

Lin SJ, Pufahl RA, Dancis A, O'Halloran TV, Culotta VC

The ATX1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was originally identified as a multi-copy suppressor of oxidative damage in yeast lacking superoxide dismutase. We now provide evidence that Atx1p helps deliver copper to the copper requiring oxidase Fet3p involved in iron uptake. atx1Delta null mutants are iron-deficient and are defective in the high affinity uptake of iron. These defects due to ATX1 ... [more]
