SAE2

COM1, ssDNA endodeoxyribonuclease SAE2, L000002892, YGL175C
Endonuclease required for telomere elongation; also required for telomeric 5' C-rich strand resection; involved in processing hairpin DNA structures with MRX complex; involved in double-strand break repair; required for normal resistance to DNA-damaging agents; exists in form of inactive oligomers that are transiently released into smaller active units by a series of phosphorylations; DNA damage triggers removal of Sae2p ensuring that active Sae2p is present only transiently
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RAD50

MRX complex DNA-binding subunit, L000001570, YNL250W
Subunit of MRX complex with Mre11p and Xrs2p; complex is involved in processing double-strand DNA breaks in vegetative cells, initiation of meiotic DSBs, telomere maintenance, and nonhomologous end joining; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

Publication

Sae2 and Rif2 regulate MRX endonuclease activity at DNA double-strand breaks in opposite manners.

The Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 (MRX) complex detects and processes DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Its DNA binding and processing activities are regulated by transitions between an ATP-bound state and a post-hydrolysis cutting state that is nucleolytically active. Mre11 endonuclease activity is stimulated by Sae2, whose lack increases MRX persistence at DSBs and checkpoint activation. Here we show that the Rif2 protein inhibits Mre11 ... [more]
