SPT4

transcription elongation factor SPT4, L000002030, YGR063C
Component of the universally conserved Spt4/5 complex (DSIF complex); the complex has multiple roles in concert with RNA polymerases I and II, including regulation of transcription elongation, RNA processing, quality control, and transcription-coupled DNA repair; Spt4p also localizes to kinetochores and heterochromatin and affects chromosome dynamics and silencing; required for transcription through lengthy trinucleotide repeats in ORFs or non-protein coding regions

BRE5

YNR051C
Ubiquitin protease cofactor; forms deubiquitination complex with Ubp3p that coregulates anterograde and retrograde transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi compartments; null is sensitive to brefeldin A

Synthetic Growth Defect

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in a significant growth defect under a given condition when combined in the same cell.

Reversal of RNA polymerase II ubiquitylation by the ubiquitin protease Ubp3.

The final outcome of protein polyubiquitylation is often proteasome-mediated proteolysis, meaning that "proofreading" of ubiquitylation by ubiquitin proteases (UBPs) is crucial. Transcriptional arrest can trigger ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) so a UBP reversing RNAPII ubiquitylation might be expected. Here, we show that Ubp3 deubiquitylates RNAPII in yeast. Genetic characterization of ubp3 cells is consistent with a role ... [more]
