GSC2

FKS2, 1,3-beta-glucan synthase GSC2, L000000716, L000000733, YGR032W
Catalytic subunit of 1,3-beta-glucan synthase; involved in formation of the inner layer of the spore wall; activity positively regulated by Rho1p and negatively by Smk1p; GSC2 has a paralog, FKS1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

L000000788, YDR420W
Mucin family member that functions as an osmosensor in the HOG pathway; functions in the Sho1p-mediated HOG pathway with Msb2p; proposed to be a negative regulator of filamentous growth; mutant displays defects in beta-1,3 glucan synthesis and bud site selection

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.

The plasma membrane delimits the cell and controls material and information exchange between itself and the environment. How different plasma-membrane processes are coordinated and how the relative abundance of plasma-membrane lipids and proteins is homeostatically maintained are not yet understood. Here, we used a quantitative genetic interaction map, or E-MAP, to functionally interrogate a set of approximately 400 genes involved ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • An Epistatic MiniArray Profile (E-MAP) approach was used to quantitatively score genetic interactions based on fitness defects estimated from the colony size of double versus single mutants. Genetic interactions were considered significant if they had an S score > 2.5 for positive interactions (epistatic or suppressor interactions) and S score < -2.5 for negative interactions (synthetic sick/lethal interactions).
