BAIT

SPN1

IWS1, YPR133C
Protein involved in RNA polymerase II transcription; is constitutively recruited to the CYC1 promoter and is required for recruitment of chromatin remodeling factors for the expression of CYC1 gene; interacts genetically or physically with RNAP II, TBP, TFIIS, and chromatin remodelling factors; central domain highly conserved throughout eukaryotes; mutations confer an Spt- phenotype
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

HIR2

SPT1, L000000777, YOR038C
Subunit of HIR nucleosome assembly complex; involved in regulation of histone gene transcription; recruits Swi-Snf complexes to histone gene promoters; promotes heterochromatic gene silencing with Asf1p; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Growth Defect

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in a significant growth defect under a given condition when combined in the same cell.

The elongation factor Spn1 is a multi-functional chromatin binding protein.

The process of transcriptional elongation by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) in a chromatin context involves a large number of crucial factors. Spn1 is a highly conserved protein encoded by an essential gene and is known to interact with RNAPII and the histone chaperone Spt6. Spn1 negatively regulates the ability of Spt6 to interact with nucleosomes, but the chromatin binding properties ... [more]
