SMC2

condensin subunit SMC2, L000001927, YFR031C
Subunit of the condensin complex; condensin reorganizes chromosomes during both mitosis and meiosis; essential SMC chromosomal ATPase family member that forms a subcomplex with Smc2p that has ATP-hydrolyzing and DNA-binding activity, but other condensin subunits are required for chromatin binding; required for clustering of tRNA genes at the nucleolus
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

MAD3

L000003179, YJL013C
Subunit of spindle-assembly checkpoint complex; involved in delaying anaphase onset in cells with defects in mitotic spindle assembly; pseudosubstrate inhibitor of APC(Cdc20), the anaphase promoting complex involved in securin (Pds1p) turnover; MAD3 has a paralog, BUB1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

Condensin function at centromere chromatin facilitates proper kinetochore tension and ensures correct mitotic segregation of sister chromatids.

Yong-Gonzalez V, Wang BD, Butylin P, Ouspenski I, Strunnikov A

The condensin complex is essential for sister chromatid segregation in eukaryotic mitosis. Nevertheless, in budding yeast, condensin mutations result in massive mis-segregation of chromosomes containing the nucleolar organizer, while other chromosomes, which also contain condensin binding sites, remain genetically stable. To investigate this phenomenon we analyzed the mechanism of the cell-cycle arrest elicited by condensin mutations. Under restrictive conditions, the ... [more]
