MMS21

NSE2, PSO10, SUMO ligase MMS21, L000001125, YEL019C
SUMO ligase and component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex; this complex plays a key role in the removal of X-shaped DNA structures that arise between sister chromatids during DNA replication and repair; required for efficient sister chromatid cohesion; mutants are sensitive to methyl methanesulfonate and show increased spontaneous mutation and mitotic recombination; SUMOylates and inhibits Snf1p function

SWR1

chromatin-remodeling protein SWR1, S000007447, YDR334W
Swi2/Snf2-related ATPase; structural component of the SWR1 complex, which exchanges histone variant H2AZ (Htz1p) for chromatin-bound histone H2A; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; chronological aging factor that mediates lifespan extension by dietary restriction

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 functional role of SUMO E3 ligase Mms21p in the maintenance of subtelomeric silencing in budding yeast.

Wan Y, Zuo X, Danziger SA

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, subtelomeric silencing is involved in the propagation of Silent Information Regulator (SIR) proteins toward euchromatin. Numerous mechanisms are involved in antagonizing the local spread of Sir-dependent silent chromatin into neighboring euchromatin. Here, we identified a novel role for sumoylation E3 ligase Mms21 in the maintenance of subtelomeric silencing. We found that disruption of E3 ligase activity of ... [more]
