Protein Variants Comment Organism
G388D reduces the activity of GMP synthase Gua1 in budding yeast and the total G-nucleotide pool, leading to precipitous reductions in the GDP/GTP ratio and ATP level in vivo. G388D strongly reduces the rate of growth, impairs general protein synthesis, and derepresses translation of GCN4 mRNA, encoding a transcriptional activator of diverse amino acid biosynthetic enzymes. Although processing of pre-tRNAi Met and other tRNA precursors, and the aminoacylation of tRNAi Met are also strongly impaired in G388D cells, tRNAi Met-containing complexes with the macromolecular composition of the eIF2tRNAi Met.GTP complex and the multifactor complex required for translation initiation accumulate 10-fold in G388D cells and, to a lesser extent, in wild-type cells treated with 6-azauracil Saccharomyces cerevisiae
