MUS81

SLX3, L000004650, YDR386W
Subunit of structure-specific Mms4p-Mus81p endonuclease; cleaves branched DNA; involved in DNA repair, replication fork stability, and joint molecule formation/resolution during meiotic recombination; promotes template switching during break-induced replication (BIR), causing non-reciprocal translocations (NRTs); helix-hairpin-helix protein; phosphorylation of non-catalytic subunit Mms4p by Cdc28p and Cdcp during mitotic cell cycle activates function of Mms4p-Mus81p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RNH202

Rnh2B, YDR279W
Ribonuclease H2 subunit; required for RNase H2 activity; role in ribonucleotide excision repair; related to human AGS2 that causes Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome

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.

Publication

Epistasis analysis between homologous recombination genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae identifies multiple repair pathways for Sgs1, Mus81-Mms4 and RNase H2.

Ii M, Ii T, Mironova LI, Brill SJ

The DNA repair genes SGS1 and MUS81 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are thought to control alternative pathways for the repair of toxic recombination intermediates based on the fact that sgs1Δ mus81Δ synthetic lethality is suppressed in the absence of homologous recombination (HR). Although these genes appear to functionally overlap in yeast and other model systems, the specific pathways controlled by SGS1 ... [more]
