BAIT

IWR1

YDL115C
RNA polymerase II transport factor, conserved from yeast to humans; also has a role in transporting RNA polymerase III into the nucleus; interacts with most of the RNAP II subunits; nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling protein; deletion causes hypersensitivity to K1 killer toxin; protein increases in abundance and relocalizes from nucleus to cytoplasm upon DNA replication stress

HMG2

hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (NADPH) HMG2, L000000790, YLR450W
HMG-CoA reductase; converts HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a rate-limiting step in sterol biosynthesis; one of two isozymes; overproduction induces assembly of peripheral ER membrane arrays and short nuclear-associated membrane stacks; forms foci at the nuclear periphery upon DNA replication stress; HMG2 has a paralog, HMG1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Negative Genetic

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.

Biological membranes are complex, and the mechanisms underlying their homeostasis are incompletely understood. Here, we present a quantitative genetic interaction map (E-MAP) focused on various aspects of lipid biology, including lipid metabolism, sorting, and trafficking. This E-MAP contains ∼250,000 negative and positive genetic interaction scores and identifies a molecular crosstalk of protein quality control pathways with lipid bilayer homeostasis. Ubx2p, ...

Quantitative Score

  • -3.398964 [S score]

Throughput

  • High Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: colony size (APO:0000063)

Additional Notes

  • An Epistatic MiniArray Profile (E-MAP) analysis was used to quantitatively score genetic interactions based on fitness defects estimated from the colony size of double versus single mutants. Genetic interactions were considered significant if they had an S score > 2.5 for positive interactions (suppression) and S score < -2.5 for negative interactions (synthetic sick/lethality).
