BAIT

HPR1

TRF1, L000000808, YDR138W
Subunit of THO/TREX complexes; this complex couple transcription elongation with mitotic recombination and with mRNA metabolism and export, subunit of an RNA Pol II complex; regulates lifespan; involved in telomere maintenance; similar to Top1p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

UAF30

YOR295W
Subunit of UAF (upstream activation factor) complex; UAF is an RNA polymerase I specific transcription stimulatory factor composed of Uaf30p, Rrn5p, Rrn9p, Rrn10p, histones H3 and H4; targeting factor for the UAF that facilitates activation of many rDNA genes; deletion decreases cellular growth rate; UAF30 has a paralog, TRI1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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 Transcription Factor THO Promotes Transcription Initiation and Elongation by RNA Polymerase I.

Zhang Y, French SL, Beyer AL, Schneider DA

Although ribosomal RNA represents the majority of cellular RNA, and ribosome synthesis is closely connected to cell growth and proliferation rates, a complete understanding of the factors that influence transcription of ribosomal DNA is lacking. Here, we show that the THO complex positively affects transcription by RNA polymerase I (Pol I). We found that THO physically associates with the rDNA ... [more]
