SMC6

RHC18, DNA repair protein SMC6, L000004130, YLR383W
Component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex; this complex plays a key role in the removal of X-shaped DNA structures that arise between sister chromatids during DNA replication and repair; homologous to S. pombe rad18
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

SLX5

HEX3, ULS2, SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase complex subunit SLX5, L000000768, YDL013W
Subunit of the Slx5-Slx8 SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) complex; stimulated by SUMO-modified substrates; contains a RING domain and two SIM motifs; forms SUMO-dependent nuclear foci, including DNA repair centers; associates with the centromere; null mutants are aneuploid, have a metaphase delay, and spindle defects including: mispositioned spindles, fish hook spindles, and aberrant spindle kinetics; required for maintenance of genome integrity like human ortholog RNF4

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]
