Motor proteins can organize posttranscriptional processes by transporting ribonucleoprotein complexes to specific locations. To investigate a possible role of myosin proteins in gene expression control, I have identified mRNAs associated with five myosin heavy chains in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, by purifying the proteins and identifying bound transcripts using DNA microarrays. Each myosin coimmunoprecipitated with 5-13 different mRNAs (approximately 0.1-0.2% of all genes), inc ...[more]
