BAIT

NHP6A

L000001244, L000001245, YPR052C
High-mobility group (HMG) protein; binds to and remodels nucleosomes; involved in recruiting FACT and other chromatin remodelling complexes to chromosomes; functionally redundant with Nhp6Bp; required for transcriptional initiation fidelity of some tRNA genes; homologous to mammalian HMGB1 and HMGB2; NHP6A has a paralog, NHP6B, that arose from the whole genome duplication; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress

PREY

HHF1

histone H4, L000000770, YBR009C
Histone H4; core histone protein required for chromatin assembly and chromosome function; one of two identical histone proteins (see also HHF2); contributes to telomeric silencing; N-terminal domain involved in maintaining genomic integrity

PCA

A Protein-Fragment Complementation Assay (PCA) is a protein-protein interaction assay in which a bait protein is expressed as fusion to one of the either N- or C- terminal peptide fragments of a reporter protein and prey protein is expressed as fusion to the complementary N- or C- terminal fragment of the same reporter protein. Interaction of bait and prey proteins bring together complementary fragments, which can then fold into an active reporter, e.g. the split-ubiquitin assay.

Nhp6p and Med3p regulate gene expression by controlling the local subunit composition of RNA polymerase II.

Xue X, Lehming N

Nhp6p is an architectural Saccharomyces cerevisiae non-histone chromosomal protein that bends DNA and plays an important role in transcription and genome stability. We used the split-ubiquitin system to isolate proteins that interact with Nhp6p in vivo, and we confirmed 11 of these protein-protein interactions with glutathione S-transferase pull-down experiments in vitro. Most of the Nhp6p-interacting proteins are involved in transcription ... [more]

Dosage Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene causes lethality in a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.
