Disease relevance of RPA190

 

High impact information on RPA190

  • Furthermore, measurements of the exchange of A135 and A190 subunits between preexistent Pol I and newly synthesized Pol I showed that these two largest subunits of Pol I do not disassociate through many rounds of transcription in vivo [2].
  • As predicted by our previous immunological results, yeast DNA inserts of the lambda A-190 and lambda C-160 clones cross-hybridized to the B-220 subunit gene [3].
  • They all impair a two-hybrid interaction with a fragment conserved in the largest subunits of RNA polymerases I (Rpa190p), II (Rpb1p), and III (Rpc160p) [4].
  • In addition, the temperature-sensitive phenotype of the rpa12 null mutants can be partially suppressed by RPA190 (the gene for A190) on multicopy plasmids [5].
  • We have previously isolated mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that are primarily defective in transcription of 35S rRNA genes by RNA polymerase I and have identified genes (RRN1 to RRN9) involved in this process [5].
 

Biological context of RPA190

 

Associations of RPA190 with chemical compounds

  • The synthesis of ribosomal proteins (r proteins) under the conditions of greatly reduced RNA synthesis were studied by using a strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae in which the production of the largest subunit (RPA190) of RNA polymerase I was controlled by the galactose promoter [6].
 

Physical interactions of RPA190

  • In agreement with the fact that Rpb5 is shared among all three forms of eukaryotic RNA polymerases, the region H of RNA polymerase I subunit 1 (Rpa190) was also found to interact with Rpb5 [9].
 

Other interactions of RPA190

  • These results suggest that A12.2 plays a role in the assembly of A190 into a stable polymerase I structure [5].
  • A potential DNA-binding site (zinc-binding motif) is conserved in the N-terminal region I. Remarkably, the A190 subunit does not harbor the heptapeptide repeated sequence present in the B220 subunit [1].
  • RPA43 mapped next to RPA190, encoding the largest subunit of polymerase I. These genes are divergently transcribed and may thus share upstream regulatory elements ensuring their co-regulation [10].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of RPA190

  • Separation of the protein subunit components by 5% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analysis by autoradiography and silver staining revealed that the two largest subunits (A190 and A135) were radiolabeled [11].
