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)

HRT1

HRT2, RBX1, ROC1, SCF ubiquitin ligase complex subunit HRT1, L000004443, YOL133W
RING-H2 domain core subunit of multiple ubiquitin ligase complexes; subunit of Skp1-Cullin-F-box (SCF) that tethers the Cdc34p (E2) and Cdc53p (cullin) SCF subunits, and is required for degradation of Gic2p, Far1p, Sic1p and Cln2p; subunit of the Rtt101p-Mms1p-Mms22p ubiquitin ligase that stabilizes replication forks after DNA lesions; subunit of the Cul3p-Elc1p-Ela1p ubiquitin ligase involved in Rpb1p degradation as part of transcription-coupled repair
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]
