POL2

DUN2, DNA polymerase epsilon catalytic subunit, L000001461, YNL262W
Catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase (II) epsilon; a chromosomal DNA replication polymerase that exhibits processivity and proofreading exonuclease activity; participates in leading-strand synthesis during DNA replication; also involved in DNA synthesis during DNA repair; interacts extensively with Mrc1p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

DUN1

serine/threonine protein kinase DUN1, L000000531, YDL101C
Cell-cycle checkpoint serine-threonine kinase; required for DNA damage-induced transcription of certain target genes, phosphorylation of Rad55p and Sml1p, and transient G2/M arrest after DNA damage; Mec1p and Dun1p function in same pathway to regulate both dNTP pools and telomere length; also regulates postreplicative DNA repair

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.

dNTP pool levels modulate mutator phenotypes of error-prone DNA polymerase ε variants.

Williams LN, Marjavaara L, Knowels GM, Schultz EM, Fox EJ, Chabes A, Herr AJ

Mutator phenotypes create genetic diversity that fuels tumor evolution. DNA polymerase (Pol) ε mediates leading strand DNA replication. Proofreading defects in this enzyme drive a number of human malignancies. Here, using budding yeast, we show that mutator variants of Pol ε depend on damage uninducible (Dun)1, an S-phase checkpoint kinase that maintains dNTP levels during a normal cell cycle and ...
