ARP1

ACT5, actin-related protein 1, L000000028, YHR129C
Actin-related protein of the dynactin complex; required for spindle orientation and nuclear migration; forms actin-like short filament composed of 9 or 10 Arp1p monomers; putative ortholog of mammalian centractin

CTH1

putative mRNA-binding protein CTH1, L000002772, YDR151C
Member of the CCCH zinc finger family; similar to mammalian Tis11 protein, which activates transcription and also has a role in mRNA degradation; may function with Tis11p in iron homeostasis; CTH1 has a paralog, TIS11, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

BACKGROUND: Large scale screening for synthetic lethality serves as a common tool in yeast genetics to systematically search for genes that play a role in specific biological processes. Often the amounts of data resulting from a single large scale screen far exceed the capacities of experimental characterization of every identified target. Thus, there is need for computational tools that select ... [more]
