BUF2, FUN3, RPA1, RPA70, replication factor A subunit protein RFA1, L000000204, L000001620, YAR007C
Subunit of heterotrimeric Replication Protein A (RPA); RPA is a highly conserved single-stranded DNA binding protein involved in DNA replication, repair, and recombination; RPA protects against inappropriate telomere recombination, and upon telomere uncapping, prevents cell proliferation by a checkpoint-independent pathway; role in DNA catenation/decatenation pathway of chromosome disentangling; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia

SAE2

COM1, ssDNA endodeoxyribonuclease SAE2, L000002892, YGL175C
Endonuclease required for telomere elongation; also required for telomeric 5' C-rich strand resection; involved in processing hairpin DNA structures with MRX complex; involved in double-strand break repair; required for normal resistance to DNA-damaging agents; exists in form of inactive oligomers that are transiently released into smaller active units by a series of phosphorylations; DNA damage triggers removal of Sae2p ensuring that active Sae2p is present only transiently
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Phenotypic Enhancement

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or overexpression of one gene results in enhancement of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.

RPA Coordinates DNA End Resection and Prevents Formation of DNA Hairpins.

Chen H, Lisby M, Symington LS

Replication protein A (RPA) is an essential eukaryotic single-stranded DNA binding protein with a central role in DNA metabolism. RPA directly participates in DNA double-strand break repair by stimulating 5'-3' end resection by the Sgs1/BLM helicase and Dna2 endonuclease in vitro. Here we investigated the role of RPA in end resection in vivo, using a heat-inducible degron system that allows rapid conditional ... [more]
