BAIT

TOA1

L000002316, YOR194C
TFIIA large subunit; involved in transcriptional activation, acts as antirepressor or as coactivator; required, along with Toa2p, for ribosomal protein gene transcription in vivo; homologous to largest and second largest subunits of human and Drosophila TFIIA
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

MOT1

BUR3, END10, LPF4, BTAF1, L000001136, L000004559, S000029158, YPL082C
Essential protein involved in regulation of transcription; removes Spt15p (TBP) from DNA via its C-terminal ATPase activity; may have a role in ensuring that soluble TBP is available to bind TATA-less promoters; forms a complex with TBP that binds TATA DNA with high affinity but with altered specificity; the Mot1p-Spt15p-DNA ternary complex contains unbent DNA
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.

Evidence that Spt3 functionally interacts with Mot1, TFIIA, and TATA-binding protein to confer promoter-specific transcriptional control in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Madison JM, Winston F

Spt3 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a factor required for normal transcription from particular RNA polymerase II-dependent promoters. Previous genetic and biochemical analyses have shown that Spt3 interacts with the yeast TATA-binding protein (TBP). To identify other factors that might interact with Spt3, we have screened for mutations that, in combination with an spt3 null mutation, lead to inviability. In this ... [more]
