Synthetic enhancement in gene interaction: a genetic tool come of age
Abstract
Synthetic enhancement, in which one mutation exacerbates the severity of another, is a genetic interaction of increasing importance in biology. This review focuses on the logic of interpreting synthetic enhancement, and begins by comparing the phenomenon with genetic suppression.
