HPR1

TRF1, L000000808, YDR138W
Subunit of THO/TREX complexes; this complex couple transcription elongation with mitotic recombination and with mRNA metabolism and export, subunit of an RNA Pol II complex; regulates lifespan; involved in telomere maintenance; similar to Top1p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

SPT2

EXA1, SIN1, L000002028, YER161C
Protein involved in negative regulation of transcription; required for RNA polyadenylation; exhibits regulated interactions with both histones and SWI-SNF components; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; similar to mammalian HMG1 proteins

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.

HPR1 encodes a global positive regulator of transcription in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Zhu Y, Peterson CL, Christman MF

The Hpr1 protein has an unknown function, although it contains a region of homology to DNA topoisomerase I. We have found that hpr1 null mutants are defective in the transcription of many physiologically unrelated genes, including GAL1, HO, ADH1, and SUC2, by using a combination of Northern (RNA) blot analysis, primer extension, and upstream activation sequence-lacZ fusions. Many of the ... [more]
