High impact information on TPA1

  • Consistent with a potential role in regulating poly(A) tail length, Tpa1p was also found to coimmunoprecipitate with the yeast poly(A) binding protein Pab1p [1].
  • These results suggest that Tpa1p is a component of a messenger ribonucleoprotein complex bound to the 3' untranslated region of mRNAs that affects translation termination, deadenylation, and mRNA decay [1].
  • In this report, we show that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein Tpa1p (for termination and polyadenylation) influences translation termination efficiency, mRNA poly(A) tail length, and mRNA stability [1].
  • Tpa1p is encoded by the previously uncharacterized open reading frame YER049W [1].
  • Acyl DHAP reductase activity in both wild type and tpa1 cells grown on a nonfermentable carbon source was increased approximately 2-fold over that of glucose-grown cells [2].
