PSY2

YNL201C
Subunit of protein phosphatase PP4 complex; Pph3p and Psy2p form the active complex, Psy4p may provide additional substrate specificity; regulates recovery from the DNA damage checkpoint, the gene conversion- and single-strand annealing-mediated pathways of meiotic double-strand break repair and efficient Non-Homologous End-Joining (NHEJ) pathway; Pph3p and Psy2p localize to foci on meiotic chromosomes; putative homolog of mammalian R3
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

CHK1

serine/threonine protein kinase CHK1, L000004861, YBR274W
Serine/threonine kinase and DNA damage checkpoint effector; mediates cell cycle arrest via phosphorylation of Pds1p; phosphorylated by checkpoint signal transducer Mec1p; homolog of S. pombe and mammalian Chk1 checkpoint kinase

Phenotypic Suppression

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

One of the main mechanisms for double stranded DNA break (DSB) repair is through the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway. Using plasmid and chromosomal repair assays, we showed that deletion mutant strains for interacting proteins Pph3p and Psy2p had reduced efficiencies in NHEJ. We further observed that this activity of Pph3p and Psy2p appeared linked to cell cycle Rad53p and Chk1p ... [more]
