ROM1

SKC1, Rho family guanine nucleotide exchange factor ROM1, L000003181, YGR070W
GDP/GTP exchange protein (GEP) for Rho1p; mutations are synthetically lethal with mutations in rom2, which also encodes a GEP; ROM1 has a paralog, ROM2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

Mechanisms for concentrating Rho1 during cytokinesis.

Yoshida S, Bartolini S, Pellman D

The small GTP-binding protein, Rho1/RhoA plays a central role in cytokinetic actomyosin ring (CAR) assembly and cytokinesis. Concentration of Rho proteins at the division site is a general feature of cytokinesis, yet the mechanisms for recruiting Rho to the division site for cytokinesis remain poorly understood. We find that budding yeast utilizes two mechanisms to concentrate Rho1 at the division ... [more]
