High impact information on RNA15

  • RNA14 and RNA15 proteins as components of a yeast pre-mRNA 3'-end processing factor [1].
  • By this approach, we have identified a RNAP II termination domain in the well-defined cleavage polyadenylation factor called CstF-64 in metazoans and Rna15p in S. cerevisiae [2].
  • We described previously an unexpected association between a transcription factor, PC4 (or Sub1 in yeast), and an mRNA polyadenylation factor, CstF-64 (Rna15 in yeast), and provided evidence that this was important for efficient transcription elongation [3].
  • Furthermore, a quantitative analysis of transcription run-on performed on temperature-sensitive mutant strains reveals that the lack of either functional Rna14p or Pcf11p affects transcription termination more severely than the absence of a functional Rna15p [4].
  • However, in complex with Hrp1 and Rna14, Rna15 specifically interacts with the A-rich element [5].
 

Biological context of RNA15

 

Associations of RNA15 with chemical compounds

  • Sequence comparison reveals an N-terminal putative RNA-binding domain in the RNA15-encoded protein, followed by a glutamine and asparagine stretch similar to the opa sequences [7].
 

Physical interactions of RNA15

  • Yeast Pab1 interacts with Rna15 and participates in the control of the poly(A) tail length in vitro [8].
  • The present data suggest that Sts1p may play a role in the transport of Rna15p from the cytoplasm to the nucleus [9].
 

Other interactions of RNA15

  • We observed that the rates of deadenylation are not affected by lesions in either the RNA14 or the RNA15 gene [6].
  • Moreover, fractions obtained by anion-exchange chromatography of extracts from the wild-type strain contain both Pcf11 and Rna15 in the same fractions, as shown by immunoblotting with a Pcf11-specific antibody [10].
  • These observations suggest that the RNA14, RNA15, and PAP1 proteins are involved in poly(A) site choice [6].
  • The Pcf11-2 thermosensitive strain shows a shortening of the poly(A) tails and a strong decrease in the steady-state level of actin transcripts after a shift to the nonpermissive temperature as do the thermosensitive alleles of RNA14 and RNA15 [10].
  • One of these is the previously known RNA15, which, like NPL3, also encodes a protein with similarity to the vertebrate hnRNP A/B protein family [11].
