SGS1

ATP-dependent DNA helicase SGS1, L000001877, YMR190C
RecQ family nucleolar DNA helicase; role in genome integrity maintenance; regulates chromosome synapsis and meiotic joint molecule/crossover formation; stimulates DNA catenation/decatenation activity of Top3p; potential repressor of a subset of rapamycin responsive genes; rapidly lost in response to rapamycin in Rrd1p-dependent manner; similar to human BLM and WRN proteins implicated in Bloom and Werner syndromes; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RPS31

RPS37, UBI3, ubiquitin-ribosomal 40S subunit protein S31 fusion protein, S31e, UB13, YS24, S37, S31, L000001768, L000002413, YLR167W
Fusion protein cleaved to yield ribosomal protein S31 and ubiquitin; ubiquitin may facilitate assembly of the ribosomal protein into ribosomes; interacts genetically with translation factor eIF2B; homologous to mammalian ribosomal protein S27A, no bacterial homolog
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in lethality when combined in the same cell under a given condition.

The concept of synthetic lethality has gained popularity as a rational guide for predicting chemotherapeutic targets based on negative genetic interactions between tumor-specific somatic mutations and a second-site target gene. One hallmark of most cancers that can be exploited by chemotherapies is chromosome instability (CIN). Because chromosome replication, maintenance, and segregation represent conserved and cell-essential processes, they can be modeled ... [more]
