The fission yeast prp10(+) gene involved in pre-mRNA splicing encodes a homologue of highly conserved splicing factor, SAP155.

Habara, Y, Urushiyama, S, Tani, T, Ohshima, Y

In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, 14 prp (pre-mRNAprocessing) mutants have been isolated to date. We cloned the prp10(+) gene by complementation of the temperature-sensitive growth of...

A connection between pre-mRNA splicing and the cell cycle in fission yeast: cdc28+ is allelic with prp8+ and encodes an RNA-dependent ATPase/helicase.

Lundgren, K, Allan, S, Urushiyama, S, Tani, T, Ohshima, Y, Frendewey, D, ...

The fission-yeast gene cdc28+ was originally identified in a screen for temperature-sensitive mutants that exhibit a cell-division cycle arrest and was found to be required for mitosis. We undertook...

Isolation and molecular characterization of mRNA transport mutants in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Azad, A K, Tani, T, Shiki, N, Tsuneyoshi, S, Urushiyama, S, Ohshima, Y

Nucleocytoplasmic transport of mRNA is essential for eukaryotic gene expression. However, how mRNA is exported from the nucleus is mostly unknown. To elucidate the mechanisms of mRNA transport, we...

An mRNA-type intron is present in the Rhodotorula hasegawae U2 small nuclear RNA gene.

Takahashi, Y, Urushiyama, S, Tani, T, Ohshima, Y

Splicing an mRNA precursor requires multiple factors involving five small nuclear RNA (snRNA) species called U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6. The presence of mRNA-type introns in the U6 snRNA genes of some...

Mutation in the prp12+ gene encoding a homolog of SAP130/SF3b130 causes differential inhibition of pre-mRNA splicing and arrest of cell-cycle progression in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Habara, Y, Urushiyama, S, Shibuya, T, Ohshima, Y, Tani, T

prp12-1 is one of the mutants defective in pre-mRNA splicing at a nonpermissive temperature in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We found that the prp12+ gene encodes a protein highly homologous with a...

Characterization of the ptr6(+) gene in fission yeast: a possible involvement of a transcriptional coactivator TAF in nucleocytoplasmic transport of mRNA.

Shibuya, T, Tsuneyoshi, S, Azad, A K, Urushiyama, S, Ohshima, Y, Tani, T

Transport of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm is one of the important steps in gene expression in eukaryotic cells. To elucidate a mechanism of mRNA export, we identified a novel ptr [poly(A)+...
