BAIT

SLK19

L000004340, YOR195W
Kinetochore-associated protein; required for chromosome segregation and kinetochore clustering; required for normal segregation of chromosomes in meiosis and mitosis; component of the FEAR regulatory network, which promotes Cdc14p release from the nucleolus during anaphase; potential Cdc28p substrate
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

VPS64

FAR9, YDR200C
Protein required for cytoplasm to vacuole targeting of proteins; forms a complex with Far3p and Far7p to Far11p involved in recovery from pheromone-induced cell cycle arrest; mutant has increased aneuploidy tolerance; VPS64 has a paralog, FAR10, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

Gene function prediction from congruent synthetic lethal interactions in yeast.

Ye P, Peyser BD, Pan X, Boeke JD, Spencer FA, Bader JS

We predicted gene function using synthetic lethal genetic interactions between null alleles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Phenotypic and protein interaction data indicate that synthetic lethal gene pairs function in parallel or compensating pathways. Congruent gene pairs, defined as sharing synthetic lethal partners, are in single pathway branches. We predicted benomyl sensitivity and nuclear migration defects using congruence; these phenotypes were uncorrelated ... [more]
