YKU70

HDF1, NES24, KU70, L000000759, YMR284W
Subunit of the telomeric Ku complex (Yku70p-Yku80p); involved in telomere length maintenance, structure and telomere position effect; required for localization of telomerase ribonucleoprotein to nucleus via interaction with the TLC1 guide RNA; relocates to sites of double-strand cleavage to promote nonhomologous end joining during DSB repair
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

TLC1

TER1, L000002315
RNA template component of telomerase; TLC1 RNA contains a template sequence that Est2p uses to add irregular repeats of TG(1-3) residues onto a DNA end; promoter regulated by the cell cycle dependent transcriptional activators Swi4p/Swi6p and Mbp1p/Swi6p
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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.

Ku Must Load Directly onto the Chromosome End in Order to Mediate Its Telomeric Functions.

Lopez CR, Ribes-Zamora A, Indiviglio SM, Williams CL, Haricharan S, Bertuch AA

The Ku heterodimer associates with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomere, where it impacts several aspects of telomere structure and function. Although Ku avidly binds DNA ends via a preformed channel, its ability to associate with telomeres via this mechanism could be challenged by factors known to bind directly to the chromosome terminus. This has led to uncertainty as to whether Ku ... [more]

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.
