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.

Histone acetylation and deacetylation are among the principal mechanisms by which chromatin is regulated during transcription, DNA silencing, and DNA repair. We analyzed patterns of genetic interactions uncovered during comprehensive genome-wide analyses in yeast to probe how histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) protein complexes interact. The genetic interaction data unveil an underappreciated role of HDACs in maintaining cellular ... [more]

Throughput

  • High Throughput|Low Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: inviable (APO:0000112)

Additional Notes

  • High Throughput: dSLAM analysis was performed to determine genome-wide genetic interaction profiles of 38 query genes involved in histone (de)acetylation.
  • Low Throughput: Genetic interactions identified using dSLAM were validated by tetrad dissection and/or random spore analysis.
