BAIT

NFS1

SPL1, L000001240, YCL017C
Cysteine desulfurase; involved in iron-sulfur cluster (Fe/S) biogenesis and in thio-modification of mitochondrial and cytoplasmic tRNAs; essential protein located predominantly in mitochondria
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

DNA2

WEB2, bifuctional ATP-dependent DNA helicase/ssDNA endodeoxyribonuclease DNA2, L000003158, YHR164C
Tripartite DNA replication factor; has single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase, ATP-dependent nuclease, and helicase activities; tracking protein for flap cleavage during Okazaki fragment maturation; involved in DNA repair and processing of meiotic DNA double strand breaks; required for normal life span; component of telomeric chromatin, with cell-cycle dependent localization; required for telomerase-dependent telomere synthesis; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Negative Genetic

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.

We generated a global genetic interaction network for Saccharomyces cerevisiae, constructing more than 23 million double mutants, identifying about 550,000 negative and about 350,000 positive genetic interactions. This comprehensive network maps genetic interactions for essential gene pairs, highlighting essential genes as densely connected hubs. Genetic interaction profiles enabled assembly of a hierarchical model of cell function, including modules corresponding to ... [more]
