タイトル The C-terminal extension domain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae MrpL32, a homolog of ribosomal protein L32, functions in trans to support mitochondrial translation.
ジャーナル Genes Genet Syst
Abstract Mitochondrial ribosomal protein L32 (MrpL32) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is homologous to the bacterial L32 ribosomal protein. MrpL32 carries an N-terminal mitochondrion-targeting sequence (MTS) and is about 60 amino acid residues longer at the C-terminus. Adding to its function as a leader sequence, the MTS of MrpL32 has been reported to regulate ribosome biogenesis through its processing by m-AAA protease. However, the function of the C-terminal extension (CE) remains totally unknown. Therefore, we constructed a series of C-terminally truncated mrpl32 (mrpl32ΔC) genes and expressed them in a Δmrpl32 mutant to examine their function. Interestingly, some MrpL32ΔC derivatives exhibited temperature-sensitive (ts) growth on medium with non-fermentable carbon sources. Furthermore, the CE domain of MrpL32, expressed separately from MrpL32ΔC, could rescue the ts phenotype of mutants by improving mitochondrial protein synthesis.
