RTT107

ESC4, L000004424, YHR154W
Protein implicated in Mms22-dependent DNA repair during S phase; involved in recruiting the SMC5/6 complex to double-strand breaks; DNA damage induces phosphorylation by Mec1p at one or more SQ/TQ motifs; interacts with Mms22p and Slx4p; has four BRCT domains; has a role in regulation of Ty1 transposition; relative distribution to nuclear foci increases upon DNA replication stress

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)

Negative Genetic

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.

Systematic genetic interaction studies have illuminated many cellular processes. Here we quantitatively examine genetic interactions among 26 Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes conferring resistance to the DNA-damaging agent methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), as determined by chemogenomic fitness profiling of pooled deletion strains. We constructed 650 double-deletion strains, corresponding to all pairings of these 26 deletions. The fitness of single- and double-deletion strains were ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • Genetic interactions were quantitatively examined among 26 genes related to DNA repair. In the presence of methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), 45 were classified as alleviating interactions (significantly positive epsilon score) and 68 were classified as aggravating interactions (significantly negative epsilon score) with a P-value < 0.01.
