BAIT
GIC2
L000003314, YDR309C
Redundant rho-like GTPase Cdc42p effector; involved in initiation of budding and cellular polarization; interacts with Cdc42p via the Cdc42/Rac-interactive binding (CRIB) domain and with PI(4,5)P2 via a polybasic region; GIC2 has a paralog, GIC1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

MSD2, PKX2, polo kinase CDC5, L000000245, YMR001C
Polo-like kinase; controls targeting and activation of Rho1p at cell division site via Rholp guanine nucleotide exchange factors; regulates Spc72p; also functions in adaptation to DNA damage during meiosis; has similarity to Xenopus Plx1 and S. pombe Plo1p; possible Cdc28p substrate

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.

Novel regulation of mitotic exit by the Cdc42 effectors Gic1 and Gic2.
The guanine nucleotide exchange factor Cdc24, the GTPase Cdc42, and the Cdc42 effectors Cla4 and Ste20, two p21-activated kinases, form a signal transduction cascade that promotes mitotic exit in yeast. We performed a genetic screen to identify components of this pathway. Two related bud cortex-associated Cdc42 effectors, Gic1 and Gic2, were obtained as factors that promoted mitotic exit independently of ... [more]
