A new Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain with a mutant Smt3-deconjugating Ulp1 protein is affected in DNA replication and requires Srs2 and homologous recombination for its viability.

abstract：:mRNA deadenylation is a key process in the regulation of translation and mRNA turnover. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, deadenylation is primarily carried out by the Ccr4p and Caf1p/Pop2p subunits of the Ccr4-Not complex, which is conserved in eukaryotes including humans. Here we have identified an unconventional human C...

abstract：:Rad9 is required for the activation of DNA damage checkpoint pathways in budding yeast. Rad9 is phosphorylated after DNA damage in a Mec1- and Tel1-dependent manner and subsequently interacts with Rad53. This Rad9-Rad53 interaction has been suggested to trigger the activation and phosphorylation of Rad53. Here we show...
