BAIT

ESC2

L000004423, YDR363W
Sumo-like domain protein; prevents accumulation of toxic intermediates during replication-associated recombinational repair; roles in silencing, lifespan, chromatid cohesion and the intra-S-phase DNA damage checkpoint; RENi family member
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

SIZ1

ULL1, SUMO ligase SIZ1, S000007589, YDR409W
SUMO/Smt3 ligase; promotes attachment of small ubiquitin-related modifier sumo (Smt3p) to proteins; regulates Rsp5p ubiquitin ligase activity and is in turn itself regulated by Rsp5p; binds Ubc9p and may bind septins; specifically required for sumoylation of septins in vivo; localized to the septin ring; SIZ1 has a paralog, NFI1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

Publication

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Esc2 and Smc5-6 proteins promote sister chromatid junction-mediated intra-S repair.

Recombination is important for DNA repair, but it can also contribute to genome rearrangements. RecQ helicases, including yeast Sgs1 and human BLM, safeguard genome integrity through their functions in DNA recombination. Sgs1 prevents the accumulation of Rad51-dependent sister chromatid junctions at damaged replication forks, and its functionality seems to be regulated by Ubc9- and Mms21-dependent sumoylation. We show that mutations ... [more]
