STN1

L000003921, YDR082W
Telomere end-binding and capping protein; plays a key role with Pol12p in linking telomerase action with completion of lagging strand synthesis, and in a regulatory step required for telomere capping; similar to human Stn1

RIF1

DNA-binding protein RIF1, L000001639, YBR275C
Protein that binds to the Rap1p C-terminus; acts synergistically with Rif2p to help control telomere length and establish telomeric silencing; contributes to resection of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs); deletion results in telomere elongation

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.

Rif1 Supports the Function of the CST Complex in Yeast Telomere Capping.

Anbalagan S, Bonetti D, Lucchini G, Longhese MP

Telomere integrity in budding yeast depends on the CST (Cdc13-Stn1-Ten1) and shelterin-like (Rap1-Rif1-Rif2) complexes, which are thought to act independently from each other. Here we show that a specific functional interaction indeed exists among components of the two complexes. In particular, unlike RIF2 deletion, the lack of Rif1 is lethal for stn1ΔC cells and causes a dramatic reduction in viability ... [more]
