RIF1

DNA-binding protein RIF1, L000001639, YBR275C
Protein that binds to the Rap1p C-terminus; acts synergistically with Rif2p to help control telomere length and establish telomeric silencing; contributes to resection of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs); deletion results in telomere elongation

CTF4

CHL15, POB1, chromatin-binding protein CTF4, L000000326, YPR135W
Chromatin-associated protein; required for sister chromatid cohesion; interacts with DNA polymerase alpha (Pol1p) and may link DNA synthesis to sister chromatid cohesion
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.

Budding Yeast Rif1 Controls Genome Integrity by Inhibiting rDNA Replication.

Shyian M, Mattarocci S, Albert B, Hafner L, Lezaja A, Costanzo M, Boone C, Shore D

The Rif1 protein is a negative regulator of DNA replication initiation in eukaryotes. Here we show that budding yeast Rif1 inhibits DNA replication initiation at the rDNA locus. Absence of Rif1, or disruption of its interaction with PP1/Glc7 phosphatase, leads to more intensive rDNA replication. The effect of Rif1-Glc7 on rDNA replication is similar to that of the Sir2 deacetylase, ... [more]
