Cbr1 is a Dph3 reductase required for the tRNA wobble uridine modification.

Diphthamide and the tRNA wobble uridine modifications both require diphthamide biosynthesis 3 (Dph3) protein as an electron donor for the iron-sulfur clusters in their biosynthetic enzymes. Here, using a proteomic approach, we identified Saccharomyces cerevisiae cytochrome b5 reductase (Cbr1) as a NADH-dependent reductase for Dph3. The NADH- and Cbr1-dependent reduction ...
of Dph3 may provide a regulatory linkage between cellular metabolic state and protein translation.
