WSS1

YHR134W
Metalloprotease involved in DNA repair, removes DNA-protein crosslinks at stalled replication forks during replication of damaged DNA; sumoylated protein localizing to the nuclear periphery of mother cells; localizes to a single spot on the nuclear periphery of mother cells but not daughters; interacts genetically with SMT3; activated by DNA binding

TOP3

EDR1, DNA topoisomerase 3, L000002321, YLR234W
DNA Topoisomerase III; conserved protein that functions in a complex with Sgs1p and Rmi1p to relax single-stranded negatively-supercoiled DNA preferentially; DNA catenation/decatenation activity stimulated by RPA and Sgs1p-Top2p-Rmi1p; involved in telomere stability and regulation of mitotic recombination

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.

The stabilization and processing of stalled replication forks is required to maintain genome integrity in all organisms. In an effort to identify novel proteins that might be involved in stabilizing stalled replication forks, Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant wss1Delta was isolated from a high-throughput screening of approximately 5000 deletion strains for genes involved in the response to continuous, low-intensity UV irradiation.
