NDT80

transcription factor NDT80, L000003016, YHR124W
Meiosis-specific transcription factor; required for exit from pachytene and for full meiotic recombination; activates middle sporulation genes; competes with Sum1p for binding to promoters containing middle sporulation elements (MSE)

DAM1

L000004420, YGR113W
Essential subunit of the Dam1 complex (aka DASH complex); cooperates with Duo1p to connect the DASH complex with the microtubules (MT); couples kinetochores to the force produced by MT depolymerization thereby aiding in chromosome segregation; Ipl1p target for regulating kinetochore-MT attachments
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.

A Redundant Function for the N-terminal Tail of Ndc80 in Kinetochore-microtubule Interaction in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Demirel PB, Keyes BE, Chaterjee M, Remington CE, Burke DJ

The N-terminal tail of Ndc80 is essential for kinetochore-microtubule binding in human cells but is not required for viability in yeast. We show that the yeast Ndc80 tail is required for timely mitotic progression and accurate chromosome segregation. The tail is essential when cells are limited for Dam1 demonstrating a redundant function for the Ndc80 and Dam1 complexes in vivo. ... [more]
