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.

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

Functional interactions between Prp8, Prp18, Slu7, and U5 snRNA during the second step of pre-mRNA splicing.

Aronova A, Bacikova D, Crotti LB, Horowitz DS, Schwer B

After the second transesterification step of pre-mRNA splicing, the Prp22 helicase catalyzes release of spliced mRNA by disrupting contacts in the spliceosome that likely involve Prp8. Mutations at Arg1753 in Prp8, which suppress helicase-defective prp22 mutants, elicit temperature-sensitive growth phenotypes, indicating that interactions in the spliceosome involving Prp8-R1753 might be broken prematurely at 37 degrees C. Here we report that ... [more]

Co-localization
Co-localization

Interaction inferred from two proteins that co-localize in the cell by indirect immunofluorescence only when in addition, if one gene is deleted, the other protein becomes mis-localized. Also includes co-dependent association of proteins with promoter DNA in chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments.
