SLX8

SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase complex subunit SLX8, YER116C
Subunit of Slx5-Slx8 SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) complex; stimulated by prior attachment of SUMO to the substrate; contains a C-terminal RING domain; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress; null mutants are aneuploid, have a metaphase delay, and spindle defects including: mispositioned spindles, fish hook spindles, and aberrant spindle kinetics; required for maintenance of genome integrity like human ortholog RNF4

HPR5, DNA helicase SRS2, RADH1, RADH, L000000809, L000001578, YJL092W
DNA helicase and DNA-dependent ATPase; involved in DNA repair and checkpoint recovery, needed for proper timing of commitment to meiotic recombination and transition from Meiosis I to II; blocks trinucleotide repeat expansion; affects genome stability; disassembles Rad51p nucleoprotein filaments during meiotic recombination; functional homolog of human RTEL1

Dosage Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene causes lethality in a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.

Srs2 overexpression reveals a helicase-independent role at replication forks that requires diverse cell functions.

Leon Ortiz AM, Reid RJ, Dittmar JC, Rothstein R, Nicolas A

Srs2 is a 3'-5' DNA helicase that regulates many aspects of DNA metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is best known for its ability to counteract homologous recombination by dismantling Rad51 filaments, but is also involved in checkpoint activation, adaptation and recovery, and in resolution of late recombination intermediates. To further address its biological roles and uncover new genetic interactions, we ... [more]

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: inviable (APO:0000112)
  • phenotype: colony size (APO:0000063)

Additional Notes

  • High Throughput: Three synthetic dosage lethality screens were carried out to identify genes required for cell viability upon overexpression of SRS2 and/or its helicase mutants srs2-K41A and srs2-K41R.
  • Low Throughput: Selected SDL interactions were verified by transforming the overexpression plasmids into each strain and assessing the growth of the transformants using spot-assays.

Synthetic Growth Defect

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in a significant growth defect under a given condition when combined in the same cell.
