摘要: We report here the characterization of a bypass suppressor pab1Delta which leads to fourfold stabilization unstable MFA2 mRNA. Cloning wild-type gene for that reveals it is identical PAT1 (YCR077c), whose product was reported interact with Top2p. not an essential gene, but its deletion thermosensitive phenotype. Further analysis has shown allelic mrt1-3, mutation previously affect decapping and suppress pab1Delta, as also case dcp1, spb8, mrt3. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments show Pat1p associated Spb8p. On sucrose gradients, two proteins cosediment fractions containing polysomes. In absence Pat1p, however, Spb8p no longer cofractionates polysomes, while removal sharp decrease in level Pat1p. Our results suggest some factors involved mRNA degradation could be still being translated, awaiting specific signal commit pathway.
