PIF1

TST1, DNA helicase PIF1, L000001435, YML061C
DNA helicase, potent G-quadruplex DNA binder/unwinder; possesses strand annealing activity; promotes DNA synthesis during break-induced replication; important for crossover recombination; translation from different start sites produces mitochondrial and nuclear forms; nuclear form is a catalytic inhibitor of telomerase; mitochondrial form involved in DNA repair and recombination; mutations affect Zn, Fe homeostasis; regulated by Rad53p-dependent phosphorylation in rho0 cells
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RAD52

recombinase RAD52, L000001572, YML032C
Protein that stimulates strand exchange; stimulates strand exchange by facilitating Rad51p binding to single-stranded DNA; anneals complementary single-stranded DNA; involved in the repair of double-strand breaks in DNA during vegetative growth and meiosis and UV induced sister chromatid recombination
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

Dynamic regulation of single-stranded telomeres in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Smith S, Banerjee S, Rilo R, Myung K

The temperature-sensitive phenotypes of yku70Delta and yku80Delta have provided a useful tool for understanding telomere homeostasis. Mutating the helicase domain of the telomerase inhibitor Pif1 resulted in the inactivation of cell cycle checkpoints and the subsequent rescue of temperature sensitivity of the yku70Delta strain. The inactivation of Pif1 in yku70Delta increased overall telomere length. However, the long G-rich, single-stranded overhangs ... [more]
