GCR2

L000000691, YNL199C
Transcriptional activator of genes involved in glycolysis; interacts and functions with the DNA-binding protein Gcr1p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

SWD2

CPS35, SAF37, YKL018W
Subunit of the COMPASS (Set1C) histone H3K4 methyltransferase complex; required for Set1C stability and optimal activity; COMPASS methylates histone H3 on lys 4 and is involved in telomeric silencing; subunit of CPF (cleavage and polyadenylation factor), a complex involved in RNAP II transcription termination
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.

Defining the functional relationships between proteins is critical for understanding virtually all aspects of cell biology. Large-scale identification of protein complexes has provided one important step towards this goal; however, even knowledge of the stoichiometry, affinity and lifetime of every protein-protein interaction would not reveal the functional relationships between and within such complexes. Genetic interactions can provide functional information that ... [more]

Quantitative Score

  • -4.320532 [SGA Score]

Throughput

  • High Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: colony size (APO:0000063)

Additional Notes

  • An Epistatic MiniArray Profile (E-MAP) analysis was used to quantitatively score genetic interactions based on fitness defects estimated from the colony size of double versus single mutants. Genetic interactions were considered significant if they had an S score > 2.5 for positive interactions (suppression) and S score < -2.5 for negative interactions (synthetic sick/lethality).
