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.

The novel mitochondrial matrix protease Ste23 is required for efficient presequence degradation and processing.

Taskin AA, Kuecuekkoese C, Burger N, Mossmann D, Meisinger C, Voegtle FN

Approximately 70% of mitochondrial precursor proteins are imported from the cytosol via N-terminal presequences, which are cleaved upon exposure to the mitochondrial processing protease MPP in the matrix. Cleaved presequence peptides then need to be efficiently degraded, and impairment of this clearance step, for example, by amyloid β peptides, causes feedback inhibition of MPP, leading ultimately to accumulation of immature ...
