CELE_K07E3.3, K07E3.3
dao-3 encodes a protein containing tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase catalytic and NAD(P)-binding domains; by similarity to mammalian enzymes, DAO-3 is predicted to function in one-carbon unit metabolism and thus, in amino acid and nucleotide biosynthesis; dao-3 expression appears to be regulated by daf-2-mediated insulin signaling: microarray experiments suggest that it is upregulated in daf-2 mutant adults, while differential display and Northern analyses suggest that it is down-regulated; a dao-3 promoter gfp fusion is expressed in larvae in the hypodermis and in the nervous system, including tail neurons and phasmids.

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.

BACKGROUND: Understanding gene function and genetic relationships is fundamental to our efforts to better understand biological systems. Previous studies systematically describing genetic interactions on a global scale have either focused on core biological processes in protozoans or surveyed catastrophic interactions in metazoans. Here, we describe a reliable high-throughput approach capable of revealing both weak and strong genetic interactions in the ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • A systematic genetic interaction analysis (SGI) was carried out to detect interactions between 11 query mutants and 858 target genes compromised by RNA interference (RNAi). Interactions were determined using growth scores that indicated whether the resulting number of progeny from the double mutant was significantly different than that of single mutant controls.
