RRP6

exosome nuclease subunit RRP6, L000003540, YOR001W
Nuclear exosome exonuclease component; has 3'-5' exonuclease activity that is regulated by Lrp1p; involved in RNA processing, maturation, surveillance, degradation, tethering, and export; role in sn/snoRNAs precursor degradation; forms a stable heterodimer with Lrp1p; has similarity to E. coli RNase D and to human PM-Sc1 100 (EXOSC10); mutant displays reduced transcription elongation in the G-less-based
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

RAI1

S000007430, YGL246C
Nuclear protein with decapping endonuclease activity; targets mRNAs with unmethylated 7-methylguanosine cap structures and 5'-triphosphates; binds to and stabilizes the exoribonuclease Rat1p; required for pre-rRNA processing; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia; homologous to human DOM3Z
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, result in lethality when combined in the same cell under a given condition.

Rat1p and Rai1p function with the nuclear exosome in the processing and degradation of rRNA precursors.

Fang F, Phillips S, Butler JS

Exoribonucleases function in the processing and degradation of a variety of RNAs in all organisms. These enzymes play a particularly important role in the maturation of rRNAs and in a quality-control pathway that degrades rRNA precursors upon inhibition of ribosome biogenesis. Strains with defects in 3'-5' exoribonucleolytic components of the RNA processing exosome accumulate polyadenylated precursor rRNAs that also arise ... [more]
