CDC13

EST4, telomere-binding protein CDC13, L000000253, YDL220C
Single stranded DNA-binding protein found at TG1-3 telomere G-tails; key roles in regulation of telomerase, telomere end protection, conventional telomere replication; regulates telomere replication through recruitment of specific sub-complexes, essential function is telomere capping; forms homodimer via N-terminus; disruption of dimerization leads to short telomeres; autophagy and proteasome are involved in Cdc13p degradation; differentially phosphorylated through cell cycle
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

MGS1

ssDNA-dependent ATPase MGS1, YNL218W
Protein with DNA-dependent ATPase and ssDNA annealing activities; involved in maintenance of genome; interacts functionally with DNA polymerase delta; homolog of human Werner helicase interacting protein (WHIP); forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress

Dosage Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene causes lethality in a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.

Publication

The product of Saccharomyces cerevisiae WHIP/MGS1, a gene related to replication factor C genes, interacts functionally with DNA polymerase delta.

Branzei D, Seki M, Onoda F, Enomoto T

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene WHIP/ MGS1 encodes a protein related to the subunits of Replication Factor C (RFC). We found that the RFC-like motifs in Whip/Mgs1 are essential for its function. Furthermore, by screening for synthetic dosage lethality, we have shown that overexpression of MGS1 causes lethality in combination with mutations in genes that encode replication proteins such as DNA ...
