Abstract:
:Yeast Reb1 and its mammalian ortholog TTF1 are conserved Myb-type DNA-binding proteins that bind to specific sites near the 3'-end of rRNA genes (rDNA). Here, they participate in the termination of transcription driven by RNA polymerase I and block DNA replication forks approaching in the opposite direction. We found that Schizosaccharomyces pombe Reb1 also upregulates transcription of the ste9(+) gene that is required for nitrogen-starvation-induced growth arrest with a G1 DNA content and sexual differentiation. Ste9 activates the anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome ('APC/C') in G1, targeting B-cyclin for proteasomal degradation in response to nutritional stress. Reb1 binds in vivo and in vitro to a specific DNA sequence at the promoter of ste9(+), similar to the sequence recognized in the rDNA, and this binding is required for ste9(+) transcriptional activation and G1 arrest. This suggests that Reb1 acts as a link between rDNA metabolism and cell cycle control in response to nutritional stress. In agreement with this new role for Reb1 in the regulation of the G1-S transition, reb1Δ and wee1(ts) mutations are synthetically lethal owing to the inability of these cells to lengthen G1 before entering S phase. Similarly, reb1Δ cdc10(ts) cells are unable to arrest in G1 and die at the semi-permissive temperature.
