SLX8 / YER116C Phenotype

Phenotype annotations for a gene are curated single mutant phenotypes that require an observable (e.g., "cell shape"), a qualifier (e.g., "abnormal"), a mutant type (e.g., null), strain background, and a reference. In addition, annotations are classified as classical genetics or high-throughput (e.g., large scale survey, systematic mutation set). Whenever possible, allele information and additional details are provided.


Summary
Non-essential gene; null mutant has a reduced growth rate and competitive fitness; null mutant displays elevated whole chromosome aneuploidy, increased gross chromosomal rearrangements and loss of heterozygosity; null mutant has a metaphase delay, and decreased duration of the G1 phase; null mutant displays spindle defects including: mispositioned spindles, fish hook spindles, and aberrant spindle kinetics; null mutant has abnormal nuclear morphology with some nuclear extensions at the nuclear envelope adjacent to the nucleolus in large-budded cells; null has decreased resistance to DNA synthesis inhibitors, DNA damaging agents and UV radiation; homozygous diploid null has a sporulation defect; overexpression results in inviability

Annotations

A phenotype is defined as an observable (e.g., apoptosis) and a qualifier (e.g., increased). There may be more than one row with the same phenotype if that phenotype was observed in separate studies or in different conditions, strains, alleles, etc.


Increase the total number of rows showing on this page using the pull-down located below the table, or use the page scroll at the table's top right to browse through the table's pages; use the arrows to the right of a column header to sort by that column; filter the table using the "Filter" box at the top of the table; click on the small "i" buttons located within a cell for an annotation to view further details.

Shared Phenotypes

This diagram displays phenotype observables (purple squares) that are shared between the given gene (yellow circle) and other genes (gray circles) based on the number of phenotype observables shared (adjustable using the slider at the bottom).
