Some of the identified targets of Rad53p are the transcriptional regulator Swi6p and the kinases Dun1p and Dbf4p. Activation of these particular targets by Rad53p leads to G1 cyclin induction, ribonucleotide reductase activation, and inhibition of late firing of DNA replication origins, respectively (20, 26, 27, 28).Rad53p activation occurs both through autophosphorylation and direct phosphorylation by Mec1p (12, 13). Rad53p autophosphorylation is dependent on the presence of Mec1p, and Mec1p-mediated direct phosphorylation appears to depend on the presence of Rad9p (13, 15). Rad9p binds to two Rad53p forkhead-associated (FHA) domains, modular domains that facilitate protein-protein interactions, making Rad53p a suitable substrate for Mec1p (15, 18). The Rad53p N-terminal FHA domain is the interaction site for the type 2C phosphatases Ptc2p and Ptc3p, implicated inhibitors of Rad53p function (19). RAD53 expression has also been shown to depend on the presence of Rad9p (21).  Loss of Rad53p leads to multiple defects, including impaired checkpoint activation, inability to recover from replication blocks, X-ray sensitivity, and excess histone accumulation resulting in slow growth and chromosome loss (14, 22, 25, 24). RAD53 is the homolog of S. pombe CDS1 and human

                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
