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.

Cooperative regulation of ADE3 transcription by Gcn4p and Bas1p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Joo YJ, Kim JA, Baek JH, Seong KM, Han KD, Song JM, Choi JY, Kim J

The one-carbon response regulon is essential for the biosynthesis of nucleic acids as well as several amino acids. The ADE3 gene is known to encode a crucial one-carbon regulon enzyme, tetrahydrofolate synthase, which is involved in the biosynthesis of purine and the amino acids methionine and glycine. Therefore, the mechanism through which ADE3 transcription is regulated appears to be critical ... [more]
