Complementation of a temperature sensitive mutant of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae resulted in the isolation of PTF1 (processing/termination factor 1), an essential gene encoding a putative 3'-end processing or transcription termination factor of pre-mRNAs. Ptf1p shows significant homology to a newly discovered family of PPIases. This family is characterized by its insensitivity to immunosuppressive drugs and the lack of homology with cyclophilins and FK-506 binding proteins [Rahfeld et al. (1994) FEBS Lett. 352, 180-184]. Should Ptf1p display PPIase activity, it would be the first characterized, eukaryotic member of this putative family, which is essential for growth.
对酿酒酵母温度敏感突变体进行互补作用,从而分离出了PTF1(加工/终止因子1),这是一个必需基因,编码一种假定的前体mRNA 3'端加工或转录终止因子。Ptf1p与新发现的一类肽基脯氨酰顺反异构酶(PPIase)具有显著的同源性。该家族的特点是对免疫抑制药物不敏感,且与亲环蛋白和FK-506结合蛋白缺乏同源性[拉费尔德等人(1994年),《欧洲生物化学学会联合会快报》352卷,第180 - 184页]。如果Ptf1p具有PPIase活性,它将是这个假定家族中首个被鉴定的对生长至关重要的真核成员。
