LAS1

L000000931, YKR063C
Protein required for pre-rRNA processing at both ends of ITS2; functions with Grc3p in a conserved mechanism to modulate rRNA processing and ribosome biogenesis; may coordinate the action of the Rat1p-Rai1p exoRNAse; required for the G1/S cell cycle transition; human ortholog is Las1L; mutants require the SSD1-v allele for viability
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)
PREY

DBP2

DEAD-box ATP-dependent RNA helicase DBP2, L000000493, YNL112W
ATP-dependent RNA helicase of the DEAD-box protein family; has a strong preference for dsRNA; interacts with YRA1; required for the assembly of Yra1p, Nab2p and Mex67p onto mRNA and formation of nuclear mRNP; involved in mRNA decay and rRNA processing; may be involved in suppression of transcription from cryptic initiation sites
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Affinity Capture-MS

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner is identified by mass spectrometric methods.

The evolutionarily conserved protein LAS1 is required for pre-rRNA processing at both ends of ITS2.

Schillewaert S, Wacheul L, Lhomme F, Lafontaine DL

Ribosome synthesis entails the formation of mature rRNAs from long precursor molecules, following a complex pre-rRNA processing pathway. Why the generation of mature rRNA ends is so complicated is unclear? Nor is it understood how pre-rRNA processing is coordinated at distant sites on pre-rRNA molecules. Here we characterized, in budding yeast and human cells, the evolutionarily conserved protein Las1. We ... [more]
