MCM10

DNA43, L000000512, YIL150C
Essential chromatin-associated protein; involved in the initiation of DNA replication; required for the association of the MCM2-7 complex with replication origins; required to stabilize the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase-alpha
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 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.

Alternative mechanisms for coordinating polymerase alpha and MCM helicase.

Lee C, Liachko I, Bouten R, Kelman Z, Tye BK

Functional coordination between DNA replication helicases and DNA polymerases at replication forks, achieved through physical linkages, has been demonstrated in prokaryotes but not in eukaryotes. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we showed that mutations that compromise the activity of the MCM helicase enhance the physical stability of DNA polymerase alpha in the absence of their presumed linker, Mcm10. Mcm10 is an essential ... [more]
