SLX5

HEX3, ULS2, SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase complex subunit SLX5, L000000768, YDL013W
Subunit of the Slx5-Slx8 SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) complex; stimulated by SUMO-modified substrates; contains a RING domain and two SIM motifs; forms SUMO-dependent nuclear foci, including DNA repair centers; associates with the centromere; null mutants are aneuploid, have a metaphase delay, and spindle defects including: mispositioned spindles, fish hook spindles, and aberrant spindle kinetics; required for maintenance of genome integrity like human ortholog RNF4

RAD50

MRX complex DNA-binding subunit, L000001570, YNL250W
Subunit of MRX complex with Mre11p and Xrs2p; complex is involved in processing double-strand DNA breaks in vegetative cells, initiation of meiotic DSBs, telomere maintenance, and nonhomologous end joining; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

The Slx5-Slx8 complex affects sumoylation of DNA repair proteins and negatively regulates recombination.

Burgess RC, Rahman S, Lisby M, Rothstein R, Zhao X

Recombination is important for repairing DNA lesions, yet it can also lead to genomic rearrangements. This process must be regulated, and recently, sumoylation-mediated mechanisms were found to inhibit Rad51-dependent recombination. Here, we report that the absence of the Slx5-Slx8 complex, a newly identified player in the SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) pathway, led to increased Rad51-dependent and Rad51-independent recombination. The increases ... [more]
