DBF3, DNA39, RNA8, SLT21, USA2, U4/U6-U5 snRNP complex component PRP8, L000001500, L000003226, YHR165C
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 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.
Publication
Extragenic suppressors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae prp4 mutations identify a negative regulator of PRP genes.
The PRP4 gene encodes a protein that is a component of the U4/U6 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle and is necessary for both spliceosome assembly and pre-mRNA splicing. To identify genes whose products interact with the PRP4 gene or gene product, we isolated second-site suppressors of temperature-sensitive prp4 mutations. We limited ourselves to suppressors with a distinct phenotype, cold sensitivity, to ... [more]
