malfunction
-
lethal phenotype of a DELTAnep1 deletion, deletions in ribosome quality and functional control genes lead to DELTAnep1 growth deficiency. Except for DELTArps18b, deletions in the identified ribosome biogenesis genes are synthetically lethal with DELTAnep1. The DELTAutp30 deletion itself has no phenotype but it enforces all nep1-1ts mutant phenotypes, utp30 overexpression partially restores the nep1-1ts growth deficiency

-
the rRNA modifications are thought to play a role in modulation of the three-dimensional structure of RNA and in fine-tuning its interactions with other RNAs or proteins.

physiological function
Nep1 is a genuine rRNA methyltransferase and is essential for ribosome biogenesis
physiological function
-
the nucleolar essential protein Nep1 is an important trans-acting factor in the 90S preribosome. Nep1 methylates the hypermodified psi1191 base of 18S rRNA and has an additional essential function during ribosome biogenesis, i.e. in 40S subunit synthesis. Utp30 and Nep1 act together during pre-ribosomal complex formation and, along with Rps18, provide the surface for the Rps19 assembly to the 90S pre-ribosome
physiological function
-
Nep1 is a SPOUT RNA methyltransferase, and can catalyze methylation at the N1 of pseudouridine, it is required for 18S rRNA maturation. Nep1 is also involved in assembly of Rps19, an SSU ribosomal protein. Functional mechanism of Nep1/Emg1 N1-specific pseudouridine methyltransferase in ribosome biogenesis, structure-function relationship, overview. Nep1 recognizes its RNA site via base-specific interactions and stabilizes a stem-loop in the bound RNA. Nep1 changes rRNA structure upon binding, a uridine base is bound in the active site of Nep1, positioned for a methyltransfer at the C5 position

Without high concentrations of methionine and cysteine in the medium, the resulting strain is viable, but addition of 2.5 mM methionine and 2.5 mM cysteine strongly impairs growth

complementation of a ScDnep1 strain with the human Nep1 (C2F) protein, the HsNEP1 open reading frame is expressed with the yeast inducible/repressible GAL1 promoter and the resulting plasmid (pGALHsNEP1) is transformed into the heterozygous ScDnep1/ScNEP1 strain CEN.SR679. After sporulation and tetrad analysis, ScDnep1 segregants complemented by the pGAL-HsNEP1 are only viable with galactose

lethal phenotype of a DELTAnep1 deletion, overexpression of RPS19B and also deletions within genes DELTAnop6 and DELTAtma23, respectively, which both encode small, positively charged fungal-specific proteins, suppress the DELTAnep1 growth deficiency. Identification of DELTanep1-specific genetic interactions, polysome profiles and phenotypes, overview. DELTAAutp30 enhances the phenotype of DELTAnep1 and is a multi-copy suppressor
