MFT1

MFT52, L000001099, YML062C
Subunit of the THO complex; THO is a nuclear complex comprised of Hpr1p, Mft1p, Rlr1p, and Thp2p, that is involved in transcription elongation and mitotic recombination; involved in telomere maintenance
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

CTK2

L000003011, YJL006C
Beta subunit of C-terminal domain kinase I (CTDK-I); which phosphorylates both RNA pol II subunit Rpo21p to affect transcription and pre-mRNA 3' end processing, and ribosomal protein Rps2p to increase translational fidelity; relocalizes to the cytosol in response to hypoxia
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.

Nuclear mRNA surveillance in THO/sub2 mutants is triggered by inefficient polyadenylation.

The yeast THO complex and the associated RNA helicase Sub2p are important mRNP maturation factors. Transcripts produced in THO/sub2 mutants are subject to degradation by a surveillance mechanism that involves the nuclear RNA exosome. Here we show that inefficient polyadenylation forms the basis of this accelerated mRNA decay. A genetic screen reveals extensive interactions between deletions of THO subunits and ... [more]
