UTH1

SUN family protein UTH1, L000002766, YKR042W
Mitochondrial inner membrane protein; role in mitophagy is disputed; implicated in cell wall biogenesis, the oxidative stress response, life span during starvation, and cell death; SUN family member; UTH1 has a paralog, NCA3, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

HSF1

EXA3, MAS3, stress-responsive transcription factor HSF1, L000000814, YGL073W
Trimeric heat shock transcription factor; activates multiple genes in response to highly diverse stresses, including hyperthermia; recognizes variable heat shock elements (HSEs) consisting of inverted NGAAN repeats; monitors translational status of cell at the ribosome through an RQC (Ribosomal Quality Control)-mediated translation-stress signal; involved in diauxic shift; posttranslationally regulated
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

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

  • -3.430073 [S score]

Throughput

  • High Throughput

Ontology Terms

  • phenotype: colony size (APO:0000063)

Additional Notes

  • A gene-dosage DAmP allele was used in the experiment.
  • 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).
