BAIT

SPN1

IWS1, YPR133C
Protein involved in RNA polymerase II transcription; is constitutively recruited to the CYC1 promoter and is required for recruitment of chromatin remodeling factors for the expression of CYC1 gene; interacts genetically or physically with RNAP II, TBP, TFIIS, and chromatin remodelling factors; central domain highly conserved throughout eukaryotes; mutations confer an Spt- phenotype
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

SET2

EZL1, histone methyltransferase SET2, KMT3, L000003090, YJL168C
Histone methyltransferase with a role in transcriptional elongation; methylates H3 lysine 36 (H3K36), which suppresses incorporation of acetylated histones and signals for the deacetylation of these histones within transcribed genes; associates with the C-terminal domain(CTD) of Rpo21p; H3K36me3 (trimethylation) requires Spt6p, proline 38 on H3, CTD of Rpo21p, Ctk1p, and C-terminal SRI domain of Ste2p; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

Suppressor mutations that make the essential transcription factor Spn1/Iws1 dispensable in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Lopez-Rivera F, Chuang J, Spatt D, Gopalakrishnan R, Winston F

Spn1/Iws1 is an essential eukaryotic transcription elongation factor that is conserved from yeast to humans as an integral member of the RNA polymerase II elongation complex. Several studies have shown that Spn1 functions as a histone chaperone to control transcription, RNA splicing, genome stability, and histone modifications. However, the precise role of Spn1 is not understood, and there is little ... [more]

Negative Genetic

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.
