URA7

CTP synthase URA7, L000002436, YBL039C
Major CTP synthase isozyme (see also URA8); catalyzes the ATP-dependent transfer of the amide nitrogen from glutamine to UTP, forming CTP, the final step in de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines; involved in phospholipid biosynthesis; capable of forming cytoplasmic filaments termed cytoophidium, especially during conditions of glucose depletion; URA7 has a paralog, URA8, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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

Phenotypic Suppression

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or over expression of one gene results in suppression of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.

Publication

Alterations in cellular metabolism triggered by URA7 or GLN3 inactivation cause imbalanced dNTP pools and increased mutagenesis.

Eukaryotic DNA replication fidelity relies on the concerted action of DNA polymerase nucleotide selectivity, proofreading activity, and DNA mismatch repair (MMR). Nucleotide selectivity and proofreading are affected by the balance and concentration of deoxyribonucleotide (dNTP) pools, which are strictly regulated by ribonucleotide reductase (RNR). Mutations preventing DNA polymerase proofreading activity or MMR function cause mutator phenotypes and consequently increased cancer ... [more]

Throughput

  • Low Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: mutation frequency (APO:0000198)
  • phenotype: metabolism and growth (APO:0000094)

Additional Notes

  • Dun1 inactivation partially suppresses the dNTP imbalance in ura7 and gln3 mutants
  • deletion of DUN1 almost completely suppressed the CAN1 mutator phenotype in pol3-L612M/ura7, pol2-04/gln3, and pol3-L612M/gln3 double mutants
  • deletion of DUN1 in exo1/ura7 double mutant also reduced the CAN1 mutation rate up to exo1 single mutant levels
  • genetic complex
