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.

Pob1 Ensures Cylindrical Cell Shape by Coupling Two Distinct Rho Signaling Events during Secretory Vesicle Targeting.

Proper cell morphogenesis requires the coordination of cell polarity, cytoskeletal organization, and vesicle trafficking. The Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutant pob1-664 has a curious lemon-like shape, the basis of which is not understood. Here we found abundant vesicle accumulation in these cells, suggesting that Pob1 plays a role in vesicle trafficking. We identified Rho3 as a multi-copy suppressor of this phenotype. Because ...
