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.

Mapping the Hsp90 Genetic Interaction Network in Candida albicans Reveals Environmental Contingency and Rewired Circuitry.

Diezmann S, Michaut M, Shapiro RS, Bader GD, Cowen LE

The molecular chaperone Hsp90 regulates the folding of diverse signal transducers in all eukaryotes, profoundly affecting cellular circuitry. In fungi, Hsp90 influences development, drug resistance, and evolution. Hsp90 interacts with ∼10% of the proteome in the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, while only two interactions have been identified in Candida albicans, the leading fungal pathogen of humans. Utilizing a chemical genomic ... [more]

Throughput

  • High Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • stress resistance (APO:0000080)

Additional Notes

  • This is a chemical genetic screening that kills Hsp90 activity by pharmacological inhibition and looks for growth defect under stress conditions when combined with additional gene deletion.
