BAIT

EMG1

NEP1, YLR186W
Methyltransferase for rRNA; catalyzes methylation of the pseudouridine residue 1191 of 18S rRNA; member of the SPOUT methyltransferase family; required for maturation of 18S rRNA and for 40S ribosomal subunit production independently of methyltransferase activity; forms homodimers; human ortholog is mutated in Bowen-Conradi syndrome, and the equivalent mutation in yeast affects Emg1p dimerization and localization but not its methyltransferase activity
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

BLM10

YFL006W, S000007437, YFL007W
Proteasome activator; binds the core proteasome (CP) and stimulates proteasome-mediated protein degradation by inducing gate opening; required for sequestering CP into proteasome storage granule (PSG) during quiescent phase and for nuclear import of CP in proliferating cells; required for resistance to bleomycin, may be involved in protecting against oxidative damage; similar to mammalian PA200
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]
