HTB1

SPT12, histone H2B, L000000829, YDR224C
Histone H2B; core histone protein required for chromatin assembly and chromosome function; nearly identical to HTB2; Rad6p-Bre1p-Lge1p mediated ubiquitination regulates reassembly after DNA replication, transcriptional activation, meiotic DSB formation and H3 methylation

HXK2

HEX1, HKB, SCI2, hexokinase 2, L000000834, YGL253W
Hexokinase isoenzyme 2; catalyzes phosphorylation of glucose in the cytosol; predominant hexokinase during growth on glucose; functions in the nucleus to repress expression of HXK1 and GLK1 and to induce expression of its own gene; antiapoptotic; phosphorylation/dephosphorylation at serine-14 by protein kinase Snf1p and protein phosphatase Glc7p-Reg1p regulates nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of Hxk2p; HXK2 has a paralog, HXK1, 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.

Alterations in DNA replication and histone levels promote histone gene amplification in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Libuda DE, Winston F

Gene amplification, a process that increases the copy number of a gene or a genomic region to two or more, is utilized by many organisms in response to environmental stress or decreased levels of a gene product. Our previous studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae identified the amplification of a histone H2A-H2B gene pair, HTA2-HTB2, in response to the deletion of the ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • A synthetic genetic array (SGA) analysis was performed to identify deletions that either increase or decrease/eliminate the viability of an hta1 htb1 double mutant. Since HTA2 -HTB2 gene amplification is required for survival in an hta1 htb1 double mutant background, the level of survival of the triple mutant served as an indicator of the frequency of HTA2-HTB2 amplification.
