HSL7

L000003130, YBR133C
Protein arginine N-methyltransferase; exhibits septin and Hsl1p-dependent bud neck localization and periodic Hsl1p-dependent phosphorylation; required along with Hsl1p for bud neck recruitment, phosphorylation, and degradation of Swe1p; relocalizes away from bud neck upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

GCN5

AAS104, ADA4, SWI9, histone acetyltransferase GCN5, KAT2, L000000684, YGR252W
Catalytic subunit of ADA and SAGA histone acetyltransferase complexes; modifies N-terminal lysines on histones H2B and H3; acetylates Rsc4p, a subunit of the RSC chromatin-remodeling complex, altering replication stress tolerance; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; mutant displays reduced transcription elongation in the G-less-based run-on (GLRO) assay; greater involvement in repression of RNAPII-dependent transcription than in activation
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.

Publication

Chromatin-modifiying enzymes are essential when the Saccharomyces cerevisiae morphogenesis checkpoint is constitutively activated.

Ruault M, Pillus L

Hsl7p plays a central role in the morphogenesis checkpoint triggered when yeast bud formation is impaired and is proposed to function as an arginine methyltransferase. HSL7 is also essential in the absence of the N-terminal tails of histones H3 or H4. The requirement for H3 and H4 tails may indicate a need for their post-translational modification to bypass the morphogenesis ... [more]
