SET1

YTX1, histone methyltransferase SET1, KMT2, L000003286, YHR119W
Histone methyltransferase, subunit of the COMPASS (Set1C) complex; COMPASS methylates histone H3K4; Set1p-dependent H3K4 trimethylation recruits Nrd1p, allowing efficient termination of snoRNAs and cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) by Nrd1p-Nab3p-Sen1p pathway; modulates histone acetylation levels in promoter proximal regions to ensure efficient Nrd1p-dependent termination; required in transcriptional silencing near telomeres and at silent mating type loci; has a SET domain
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RTR1

YER139C
CTD phosphatase; dephosphorylates S5-P in the C-terminal domain of Rpo21p; has a cysteine-rich motif required for function and conserved in eukaryotes; shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm; RTR1 has a paralog, RTR2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

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.

Publication

Yeast Swd2 is essential due to antagonism between the Set1 histone methyltransferase complex and the Associated with Pta1 (APT) termination factor.

Soares LM, Buratowski S

The Set1 complex (also known as Complex associated with Set1 or COMPASS) methylates histone H3 on lysine 4, with different levels of methylation affecting transcription by recruiting various factors to distinct regions of active genes. Neither Set1 nor its associated proteins are essential for viability with the notable exception of Swd2, a WD repeat protein that is also a subunit ... [more]

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.
