High impact information on PTI1

  • A genetic screen for suppressors of loss of yeast CTD kinase I (CTDK-I) function (by deletion of the catalytic subunit gene CTK1) identified PTI1, a potential 3' cleavage/polyadenylation factor [1].
  • Pti1p and Ref2p found in association with the mRNA 3' end formation complex direct snoRNA maturation [2].
  • We also provide evidence that Pti1p probably acts by uncoupling cleavage and polyadenylation, and functions in coordination with the Nrd1p-dependent pathway for 3' end formation of non-polyadenylated transcripts [2].
  • In addition, the pto kinase phosphorylates a previously characterized substrate of Pto, the Pto-interacting Pti1 serine/threonine kinase [3].
