BAIT

CDC42

Rho family GTPase CDC42, L000000276, YLR229C
Small rho-like GTPase; essential for establishment and maintenance of cell polarity; plays a role late in cell fusion via activation of key cell fusion regulator Fus2p; mutants have defects in the organization of actin and septins
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

DBP10

L000004557, YDL031W
Putative ATP-dependent RNA helicase of the DEAD-box protein family; constituent of 66S pre-ribosomal particles; essential protein involved in ribosome biogenesis
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.

The nature of synthetic genetic interactions involving essential genes (those required for viability) has not been previously examined in a broad and unbiased manner. We crossed yeast strains carrying promoter-replacement alleles for more than half of all essential yeast genes to a panel of 30 different mutants with defects in diverse cellular processes. The resulting genetic network is biased toward ... [more]
