Analysis of the effect of the deletion of PUF3 gene in yeast
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The Puf family of RNA-binding proteins regulate gene expression by controlling protein synthesis or stimulating RNA decay. Puf3p is one of six related proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae characterised as targeting and regulating decay of nuclear-encoded mRNAs specifying mitochondrial proteins. Much prior work has examined how Puf3p regulates COX17 mRNA. We undertook a genome-wide approach to quantitatively assess the impact of loss of PUF3 on gene expression. Comparing transcript levels in wild-type and puf3∆ cells revealed that that only a small fraction of mRNA levels alter, suggesting Puf3p determines mRNA stability for only some target mRNAs.
