TRM44

YPL030W
tRNA(Ser) Um(44) 2'-O-methyltransferase; involved in maintaining levels of the tRNA-Ser species tS(CGA) and tS(UGA); conserved among metazoans and fungi but there does not appear to be a homolog in plants; TRM44 is a non-essential gene

YGL232W
Putative tRNA acetyltransferase; RNA-binding protein required for the formation of the modified nucleoside N(4)-acetylcytidine in serine and leucine tRNAs but not required for the same modification in 18S rRNA; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress

Synthetic Growth Defect

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

Identification of yeast tRNA Um(44) 2'-O-methyltransferase (Trm44) and demonstration of a Trm44 role in sustaining levels of specific tRNA(Ser) species.

Kotelawala L, Grayhack EJ, Phizicky EM

A characteristic feature of tRNAs is the numerous modifications found throughout their sequences, which are highly conserved and often have important roles. Um(44) is highly conserved among eukaryotic cytoplasmic tRNAs with a long variable loop and unique to tRNA(Ser) in yeast. We show here that the yeast ORF YPL030w (now named TRM44) encodes tRNA(Ser) Um(44) 2'-O-methyltransferase. Trm44 was identified by ... [more]
