PAP1

polynucleotide adenylyltransferase PAP1, L000001336, YKR002W
Poly(A) polymerase; one of three factors required for mRNA 3'-end polyadenylation, forms multiprotein complex with polyadenylation factor I (PF I), also required for mRNA nuclear export; may also polyadenylate rRNAs; required for gene looping

LCP5

L000004265, YER127W
Essential protein involved in maturation of 18S rRNA; depletion leads to inhibited pre-rRNA processing and reduced polysome levels; localizes primarily to the nucleolus
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.

Synthetic lethal interactions with conditional poly(A) polymerase alleles identify LCP5, a gene involved in 18S rRNA maturation.

Wiederkehr T, Pretot RF, Minvielle-Sebastia L

To identify new genes involved in 3'-end formation of mRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we carried out a screen for synthetic lethal mutants with the conditional poly(A) polymerase allele, pap1-7. Five independent temperature-sensitive mutations called Icp1 to Icp5 (for lethal with conditional pap1 allele) were isolated. Here, we describe the characterization of the essential gene LCP5 which codes for a protein ... [more]
