SPT21

L000002040, YMR179W
Protein with a role in transcriptional silencing; required for normal transcription at several loci including HTA2-HTB2 and HHF2-HHT2, but not required at the other histone loci; functionally related to Spt10p; localizes to nuclear foci that become diffuse upon DNA replication stress

Phenotypic Enhancement

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or overexpression of one gene results in enhancement of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.

Publication

The T body, a new cytoplasmic RNA granule in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Malagon F, Jensen TH

A large share of mRNA processing and packaging events occurs cotranscriptionally. To explore the hypothesis that transcription defects may affect mRNA fate, we analyzed poly(A)(+) RNA distribution in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains harboring mutations in Rpb1p, the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II. In certain rpb1 mutants, a poly(A)(+) RNA granule, distinct from any known structure, strongly accumulated in a confined ... [more]

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.
