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 spike of S phase cyclin Cig2 expression at the G1-S border in fission yeast requires both APC and SCF ubiquitin ligases.

Yamano H, Kitamura K, Kominami K, Lehmann A, Katayama S, Hunt T, Toda T

We describe a novel set of oscillation mechanisms for the fission yeast S phase cyclin Cig2, which contains an authentic destruction box and is destroyed at anaphase via the APC/cyclosome (APC/C). Unlike the mitotic cyclin Cdc13, however, Cig2 mRNA and protein peak at the G1/S boundary and decline to low levels in G2 and M phases. We show here that ... [more]

CIG2 RUM1
Affinity Capture-Western
Affinity Capture-Western

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner identified by Western blot with a specific polyclonal antibody or second epitope tag. This category is also used if an interacting protein is visualized directly by dye stain or radioactivity. Note that this differs from any co-purification experiment involving affinity capture in that the co-purification experiment involves at least one extra purification step to get rid of potential contaminating proteins.
