FAA1

long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase FAA1, L000000594, YOR317W
Long chain fatty acyl-CoA synthetase; activates imported fatty acids with a preference for C12:0-C16:0 chain lengths; functions in long chain fatty acid import; accounts for most acyl-CoA synthetase activity; localized to lipid particles; involved in sphingolipid-to-glycerolipid metabolism; forms ER foci upon DNA replication stress; FAA1 has a paralog, FAA4, that arose from the whole genome duplication

SER2

phosphoserine phosphatase, L000001866, YGR208W
Phosphoserine phosphatase of the phosphoglycerate pathway; involved in serine and glycine biosynthesis, expression is regulated by the available nitrogen source

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.

An emerging therapeutic strategy for cancer is to induce selective lethality in a tumor by exploiting interactions between its driving mutations and specific drug targets. Here we use a multi-species approach to develop a resource of synthetic lethal interactions relevant to cancer therapy. First, we screen in yeast ∼169,000 potential interactions among orthologs of human tumor suppressor genes (TSG) and ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • Untreated conditions. SGA was used to score genetic interactions based on the colony size of double versus single mutants. Genetic interactions were considered significant if they had an S score >= 2.0 for positive interactions (epistatic or suppressor interactions) and S score <= -2.5 for negative interactions (synthetic sick/lethal interactions).
