PCH2

L000004274, YBR186W
Hexameric ring ATPase that remodels chromosome axis protein Hop1p; nucleolar component of the pachytene checkpoint, which prevents chromosome segregation when recombination and chromosome synapsis are defective; also represses meiotic interhomolog recombination in rDNA; required for meiotic double-stranded break formation

MRE4, serine/threonine protein kinase MEK1, L000001062, L000001148, YOR351C
Meiosis-specific serine/threonine protein kinase; functions in meiotic checkpoint, promotes recombination between homologous chromosomes by suppressing double strand break repair between sister chromatids; stabilizes Hop1-Thr318 phosphorylation to promote interhomolog recombination and checkpoint responses during meiosis

Dosage Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.

Pch2 Modulates Chromatid Partner Choice During Meiotic Double-Strand Break Repair in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Zanders S, Sonntag Brown M, Chen C, Alani E

In most organisms, the segregation of chromosomes during the first meiotic division is dependent upon at least one CO between each pair of homologous chromosomes. COs can result from chromosome double strand breaks (DSBs) that are induced and preferentially repaired using the homologous chromosome as a template. The PCH2 gene of budding yeast is required to establish proper meiotic chromosome ... [more]
