BAIT

MED8

L000003917, YBR193C
Subunit of the RNA polymerase II mediator complex; associates with core polymerase subunits to form the RNA polymerase II holoenzyme; essential for transcriptional regulation
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

HOG1

SSK3, mitogen-activated protein kinase HOG1, L000000797, YLR113W
Mitogen-activated protein kinase involved in osmoregulation; controls global reallocation of RNAPII in osmotic shock; activates CDC28 by stimulating antisense RNA transcription; mediates recruitment/activation of RNAPII at Hot1p-dependent promoters; with Mrc1p defines novel S-phase checkpoint that prevent conflicts between DNA replication and transcription; nuclear form represses pseudohyphal growth; autophosphorylates; protein abundance increases under 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]
