CSE4

CSL2, centromeric DNA-binding histone H3-like protein CSE4, L000002719, YKL049C
Centromere protein that resembles histone H3; associated with promoters, accessible chromatin and RNA polymerase II-bound regions; phosphorylated Cse4p associates with centromeres; required for proper kinetochore function; levels regulated by E3 ubiquitin ligase Psh1p; phosphorylation of Cse4p may destabilize defective kinetochores to promote bi-orientation; ubiquitination of N terminus regulates Cse4p proteolysis for faithful chromosome segregation; human CENP-A homolog
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

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)

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.

Misregulation of cell cycle dependent methylation of budding yeast CENP-A contributes to chromosomal instability.

Centromere (CEN) identity is specified epigenetically by specialized nucleosomes containing evolutionarily conserved CEN-specific histone H3 variant CENP-A (Cse4 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, CENP-A in humans), which is essential for faithful chromosome segregation. However, the epigenetic mechanisms that regulate Cse4 function have not been fully defined. In this study, we show that cell cycle dependent methylation of Cse4-R37 regulates kinetochore function and ... [more]
