CDC73

L000002792, YLR418C
Component of the Paf1p complex; binds to and modulates the activity of RNA polymerases I and II; required for expression of certain genes, modification of some histones, and telomere maintenance; involved in transcription elongation as demonstrated by the G-less-based run-on (GLRO) assay; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; human homologue, parafibromin, is a tumour suppressor linked to breast, renal and gastric cancers
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

NRD1

Nrd1 complex RNA-binding subunit, L000002862, YNL251C
RNA-binding subunit of Nrd1 complex; complex interacts with exosome to mediate 3'-end formation of some mRNAs, snRNAs, snoRNAs, and CUTs; interacts with CTD of RNA pol II large subunit Rpo21p at phosphorylated Ser5 to direct transcription termination of non-polyadenylated transcripts; H3K4 trimethylation of transcribed regions by Set1p enhances recruitment of Nrd1p to those sites; role in regulation of mitochondrial abundance and cell size
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.

A Requirement for the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Paf1 complex in snoRNA 3' end formation.

Sheldon KE, Mauger DM, Arndt KM

RNA synthesis and processing are coordinated by proteins that associate with RNA polymerase II (pol II) during transcription elongation. The yeast Paf1 complex interacts with RNA pol II and mediates histone modifications during elongation. To elucidate the functions of this complex, we isolated missense mutations in the gene encoding the Rtf1 subunit and used them to identify functionally interacting proteins. ... [more]
