SSL2

LOM3, RAD25, TFIIH/NER complex ATPase/helicase subunit SSL2, L000002086, YIL143C
Component of RNA polymerase transcription factor TFIIH holoenzyme; has DNA-dependent ATPase/helicase activity and is required, with Rad3p, for unwinding promoter DNA; interacts functionally with TFIIB and has roles in transcription start site selection and in gene looping to juxtapose initiation and termination regions; involved in DNA repair; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; homolog of human ERCC3
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

MDL2

ATP-binding cassette permease MDL2, L000001050, YPL270W
Mitochondrial inner membrane half-type ABC transporter; required for respiratory growth at high temperature; localizes to vacuole membrane in response to H2O2; similar to human TAP1 and TAP2 implicated in bare lymphocyte syndrome and Wegener-like granulomatosis
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.

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]

Quantitative Score

  • -2.8 [Confidence Score]

Throughput

  • High Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: colony size (APO:0000063)

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).
