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.

Schizosaccharomyces pombe Hsk1p is a potential cds1p target required for genome integrity.

Snaith HA, Brown GW, Forsburg SL

The fission yeast Hsk1p kinase is an essential activator of DNA replication. Here we report the isolation and characterization of a novel mutant allele of the gene. Consistent with its role in the initiation of DNA synthesis, hsk1(ts) genetically interacts with several S-phase mutants. At the restrictive temperature, hsk1(ts) cells suffer abnormal S phase and loss of nuclear integrity and ... [more]
