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)

SWE1

WEE1, tyrosine protein kinase SWE1, L000002248, YJL187C
Protein kinase that regulates the G2/M transition; regulates the G2/M transition by inhibition of Cdc28p kinase activity; localizes to the nucleus and to the daughter side of the mother-bud neck; phosphorylates conserved tyrosine residue in N-terminus of Hsp90 in cell-cycle associated manner, thus modulating the ability of Hsp90 to chaperone a selected clientele; homolog of S. pombe Wee1p; potential Cdc28p substrate

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

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]

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.
