DEAD-box ATPase Dbp2 mediates mRNA release after 3’-end formation - III
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: DEAD-box ATPases belong to an abundant class of proteins that are involved in virtually all aspects of RNA metabolism and are found in all kingdoms of life. When bound to a DEAD-box ATPase, the RNA substrate is forced into a kinked conformation that is incompatible with helical structures. Distortion of the RNA can result in unwinding of short RNA duplexes (helicase activity) or destabilize RNA-protein interactions, allowing DEAD-box ATPases to remodel mRNPs (RNPase activity). The RNPase activity makes DEAD-box ATPases suitable molecular building blocks for the implementation of checkpoints that confer directionality to the process of RNA biogenesis. Here, we provide data that characterizes the DEAD-box ATPase Dbp2 (SPBP8B7.16c) of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Using RNA-seq, we determined RNA expression profiles of a conditional depletion strain of Dbp2 and the corresponding wild type. For this, we placed the endogenous dbp2 gene under the control of the P.nmt1 promoter, which is repressed in the presence of thiamine. Cells were harvested at the beginning (t0) or the end (t5 or t9) of shift to thiamine-containing YES medium. S. cerevisiae spike-in cells were added in a 1:5 OD600 ratio immediately before harvesting.
