BAIT

EMG1

NEP1, YLR186W
Methyltransferase for rRNA; catalyzes methylation of the pseudouridine residue 1191 of 18S rRNA; member of the SPOUT methyltransferase family; required for maturation of 18S rRNA and for 40S ribosomal subunit production independently of methyltransferase activity; forms homodimers; human ortholog is mutated in Bowen-Conradi syndrome, and the equivalent mutation in yeast affects Emg1p dimerization and localization but not its methyltransferase activity
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

DCS2

YOR173W
m(7)GpppX pyrophosphatase regulator; non-essential, stress induced regulatory protein; modulates m7G-oligoribonucleotide metabolism; inhibits Dcs1p; regulated by Msn2p, Msn4p, and the Ras-cAMP-cAPK signaling pathway; mutant has increased aneuploidy tolerance; DCS2 has a paralog, DCS1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

A genome-scale genetic interaction map was constructed by examining 5.4 million gene-gene pairs for synthetic genetic interactions, generating quantitative genetic interaction profiles for approximately 75% of all genes in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A network based on genetic interaction profiles reveals a functional map of the cell in which genes of similar biological processes cluster together in coherent subsets, ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • A Synthetic Genetic Array (SGA) analysis was carried out to quantitatively score genetic interactions based on fitness defects that were estimated from the colony size of double versus single mutants. Genetic interactions were considered significant if they had an SGA score of epsilon > 0.08 for positive interactions and epsilon < -0.08 for negative interactions, and a p-value < 0.05.
  • YLR186W is an essential gene and therefore a gene-dosage DAmP allele was used in the experiment. The Decreased Abundance by mRNA Perturbation (DAmP) method results in destabilizing a gene's transcripts thereby decreasing the amount of protein.
