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

SMT3

SUMO family protein SMT3, L000001938, YDR510W
Ubiquitin-like protein of the SUMO family; conjugated to lysine residues of target proteins; associates with transcriptionally active genes; regulates chromatid cohesion, chromosome segregation, APC-mediated proteolysis, DNA replication and septin ring dynamics; phosphorylated at Ser2

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

Publication

SMC complexes are guarded by the SUMO protease Ulp2 against SUMO-chain-mediated turnover.

Psakhye I, Branzei D

Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMCs) complexes, cohesin, condensin, and Smc5/6, are essential for viability and participate in multiple processes, including sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome condensation, and DNA repair. Here we show that SUMO chains target all three SMC complexes and are antagonized by the SUMO protease Ulp2 to prevent their turnover. We uncover that the essential role of the cohesin-associated subunit ... [more]

  • Low Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: vegetative growth (APO:0000106)

Additional Notes

  • genetic complex
  • synthetic lethality of smc2-8/ulp2 deltion cells is rescued by expressing as the single source of SUMO the smt3-KRall SUMO variant that cannot form lysine-linked SUMO chains

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.
