Phenotypic Enhancement

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

A role for the START gene-specific transcription factor complex in the inactivation of cyclin B and Cut2 destruction.

Tournier S, Millar JB

Hyperactivation of Cdc2 in fission yeast causes cells to undergo a lethal premature mitosis called mitotic catastrophe. This phenotype is observed in cdc2-3w wee1-50 cells at high temperature. Eleven of 17 mutants that suppress this phenotype define a single complementation group, mcs1. The mcs1-77 mutant also suppresses lethal inactivation of the Wee1 and Mik1 tyrosine kinases and thus delays mitosis ... [more]

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.
