BAIT

UPS2

AIM30, GEP1, MSF1, MSF1', YLR168C
Mitochondrial intermembrane space protein; involved in phospholipid metabolism; has role in regulation of phospholipid metabolism by inhibiting conversion of phosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine; null mutant has defects in mitochondrial morphology; similar to Ups1p, Ups3p and to human PRELI; UPS2 has a paralog, UPS3, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

MGR2

YPL098C
Subunit of the TIM23 translocase complex; acts to couple Tim21p with the core Tim23 translocase; absolutely required for mitochondrial import of presequence-containing proteins at elevated temperature; required for viability of cells lacking the mitochondrial genome (petite-negative phenotype)

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]
