Phenotypic Enhancement

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or overexpression of one gene results in enhancement of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.

The fission yeast rDNA-binding protein Reb1 regulates G1 phase under nutritional stress.

Yeast Reb1 and its mammalian ortholog TTF1 are conserved Myb-type DNA-binding proteins that bind to specific sites near the 3'-end of rRNA genes (rDNA). Here, they participate in the termination of transcription driven by RNA polymerase I and block DNA replication forks approaching in the opposite direction. We found that Schizosaccharomyces pombe Reb1 also upregulates transcription of the ste9(+) gene ... [more]

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.
