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.

A postsynaptic role for Rhp55/57 that is responsible for cell death in Deltarqh1 mutants following replication arrest in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Hope JC, Maftahi M, Freyer GA

Following replication arrest, multiple cellular responses are triggered to maintain genomic integrity. In fission yeast, the RecQ helicase, Rqh1, plays a critical role in this process. This is demonstrated in Deltarqh1 cells that, following treatment with hydroxyurea (HU), undergo an aberrant mitosis leading to cell death. Previous data suggest that Rqh1 functions with homologous recombination (HR) in recovery from replication ... [more]
