MAF1

RNA polymerase III-inhibiting protein MAF1, L000002614, YDR005C
Highly conserved negative regulator of RNA polymerase III; involved in tRNA processing and stability; inhibits tRNA degradation via rapid tRNA decay (RTD) pathway; binds N-terminal domain of Rpc160p subunit of Pol III to prevent closed-complex formation; localization and activity are regulated by phosphorylation, mediated by TORC1, protein kinase A, and Sch9p; localizes to cytoplasm during vegetative growth and translocates to nucleus and nucleolus under stress conditions

LSM1

SPB8, L000004427, YJL124C
Lsm (Like Sm) protein; forms heteroheptameric complex (with Lsm2p, Lsm3p, Lsm4p, Lsm5p, Lsm6p, and Lsm7p) involved in degradation of cytoplasmic mRNAs; also enters the nucleus and positively regulates transcription initiation; unlike most Sm-like proteins, Lsm1p requires both its SM-domain and C-terminal domain for RNA-binding; binds to mRNAs under glucose starvation, most often in the 3' UTR; forms cytoplasmic foci upon 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.

Genetic interactions of MAF1 identify a role for Med20 in transcriptional repression of ribosomal protein genes.

Willis IM, Chua G, Tong AH, Brost RL, Hughes TR, Boone C, Moir RD

Transcriptional repression of ribosomal components and tRNAs is coordinately regulated in response to a wide variety of environmental stresses. Part of this response involves the convergence of different nutritional and stress signaling pathways on Maf1, a protein that is essential for repressing transcription by RNA polymerase (pol) III in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here we identify the functions buffering yeast cells that ... [more]
