BAIT

SPT6

CRE2, SSN20, chromatin-remodeling histone chaperone SPT6, L000002032, YGR116W
Nucleosome remodeling protein; functions in various aspects of transcription, chromatin maintenance, and RNA processing; required for the maintenance of chromatin structure during transcription in order to inhibit transcription from promoters within the coding region; required for H3K36 trimethylation but not dimethylation by Set2p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

CTR9

CDP1, L000003477, YOL145C
Component of the Paf1p complex involved in transcription elongation; binds to and modulates the activity of RNA polymerases I and II; required for expression of a subset of genes, including cyclin genes; involved in SER3 repression by helping to maintain SRG1 transcription-dependent nucleosome occupancy; contains TPR repeats
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Affinity Capture-MS

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner is identified by mass spectrometric methods.

Spt6-Spn1 interaction is required for RNA polymerase II association and precise nucleosome positioning along transcribed genes.

Spt6-Spn1 is an essential histone chaperone complex that associates with RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) and reassembles nucleosomes during gene transcription. While the interaction between Spt6 and Spn1 is important for its histone deposition and transcription functions, a precise mechanistic understanding is still limited. Here, using temperature-sensitive alleles of spt6 and spn1 that disrupt their interaction in yeast, we show that ... [more]

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.
