IRC15

YPL017C
Microtubule associated protein; regulates microtubule dynamics; required for accurate meiotic chromosome segregation; null mutant displays large budded cells due to delayed mitotic progression, increased levels of spontaneous Rad52 foci; IRC15 has a paralog, LPD1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

TUB2

ARM10, SHE8, beta-tubulin, L000002388, YFL037W
Beta-tubulin; associates with alpha-tubulin (Tub1p and Tub3p) to form tubulin dimer, which polymerizes to form microtubules; mutation in human ortholog is associated with congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles (CFEOM) with polymicrogyria
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in lethality when combined in the same cell under a given condition.

Irc15 Is a microtubule-associated protein that regulates microtubule dynamics in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Keyes BE, Burke DJ

Microtubules are polymers composed of alpha-beta tubulin heterodimers that assemble into microtubules. Microtubules are dynamic structures that have periods of both growth and shrinkage by addition and removal of subunits from the polymer. Microtubules stochastically switch between periods of growth and shrinkage, termed dynamic instability. Dynamic instability is coupled to the GTPase activity of the beta-tubulin subunit of the tubulin ... [more]
