YNG2

EAF4, NBN1, histone acetyltransferase YNG2, L000004452, YHR090C
Subunit of NuA4, an essential histone acetyltransferase complex; positions Piccolo NuA4 for efficient acetylation of histone H4 or histone H2A; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; similar to human tumor suppressor ING1 and its isoforms ING4 and ING5

RAD50

MRX complex DNA-binding subunit, L000001570, YNL250W
Subunit of MRX complex with Mre11p and Xrs2p; complex is involved in processing double-strand DNA breaks in vegetative cells, initiation of meiotic DSBs, telomere maintenance, and nonhomologous end joining; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

NuA4 subunit Yng2 function in intra-S-phase DNA damage response.

Choy JS, Kron SJ

While regulated transcription requires acetylation of histone N-terminal tails to promote an open chromatin conformation, a similar role for histone acetylation in DNA replication and/or repair remains to be established. Cells lacking the NuA4 subunit Yng2 are viable but critically deficient for genome-wide nucleosomal histone H4 acetylation. We found that yng2 mutants are specifically sensitized to DNA damage in S ... [more]
