BAIT

EPL1

L000004576, YFL024C
Subunit of NuA4, an essential histone H4/H2A acetyltransferase complex; conserved region at N-terminus is essential for interaction with the NPC (nucleosome core particle); required for autophagy; homologous to Drosophila Enhancer of Polycomb; coding sequence contains length polymorphisms in different strains
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

CTK2

L000003011, YJL006C
Beta subunit of C-terminal domain kinase I (CTDK-I); which phosphorylates both RNA pol II subunit Rpo21p to affect transcription and pre-mRNA 3' end processing, and ribosomal protein Rps2p to increase translational fidelity; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia
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.

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.
