SKY1

serine/threonine protein kinase SKY1, L000003941, YMR216C
SR protein kinase (SRPK); involved in regulating proteins involved in mRNA metabolism and cation homeostasis; similar to human SRPK1
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

PRP8

DBF3, DNA39, RNA8, SLT21, USA2, U4/U6-U5 snRNP complex component PRP8, L000001500, L000003226, YHR165C
Component of U4/U6-U5 snRNP complex; involved in second catalytic step of splicing; participates in spliceosomal assembly through its interaction with U1 snRNA; largest and most evolutionarily conserved protein of the spliceosome; mutations in its human ortholog, PRPF8, cause Retinitis pigmentosa and missplicing in Myelodysplastic syndrome.
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.

Evidence for a role of Sky1p-mediated phosphorylation in 3' splice site recognition involving both Prp8 and Prp17/Slu4.

Dagher SF, Fu XD

The SRPK family of kinases is specific for RS domain-containing splicing factors and known to play a critical role in protein-protein interaction and intracellular distribution of their substrates in both yeast and mammalian cells. However, the function of these kinases in pre-mRNA splicing remains unclear. Here we report that SKY1, a SRPK family member in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, genetically interacts with ... [more]
