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 yeast mitochondrial carrier proteins Mrs3p/Mrs4p mediate iron transport across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Froschauer EM, Schweyen RJ, Wiesenberger G

The yeast proteins Mrs3p and Mrs4p are two closely related members of the mitochondrial carrier family (MCF), which had previously been implicated in mitochondrial Fe(2+) homeostasis. A vertebrate Mrs3/4 homologue named mitoferrin was shown to be essential for erythroid iron utilization and proposed to function as an essential mitochondrial iron importer. Indirect reporter assays in isolated yeast mitochondria indicated that ... [more]
