What's a GeneRIF?

The dedicated chaperones of eL43, Puf6 and Loc1 can also bind RPL43 mRNA and regulate the production of this ribosomal protein.
Title: The dedicated chaperones of eL43, Puf6 and Loc1 can also bind RPL43 mRNA and regulate the production of this ribosomal protein.
Results found that Puf6 and Loc1 are critical to maintaining the stability of Rpl43. Mutation of any one protein results in blockages at similar steps during biogenesis. The C-terminus of Loc1 is more important for interaction with Puf6 and Rpl43. Correct formation of the Puf6, Loc1, and Rpl43 ternary complex is required to properly proceed to the next step in 60S biogenesis.
Title: Puf6 and Loc1 Are the Dedicated Chaperones of Ribosomal Protein Rpl43 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Transcriptomic analyses revealed small changes in the level of Ty1 transcripts or efficiency of translation initiation in a loc1Delta mutant. Importantly, a loc1Delta mutant had defects in assembly of Gag complexes and packaging Ty1 RNA.
Title: Ribosome Biogenesis Modulates Ty1 Copy Number Control in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Puf6 and Loc1 facilitate Rpl43 loading and are sequentially released from 60S after incorporation of Rpl43 into ribosomes in yeast.
Title: The Roles of Puf6 and Loc1 in 60S Biogenesis Are Interdependent, and Both Are Required for Efficient Accommodation of Rpl43.
She2p interacts with both Loc1p and Puf6p and excluding She2p from the nucleus decreases this interaction.
Title: Nuclear shuttling of She2p couples ASH1 mRNA localization to its translational repression by recruiting Loc1p and Puf6p.
has a role in rRNA processing and nuclear export of 60S subunits
Title: Loc1p is required for efficient assembly and nuclear export of the 60S ribosomal subunit.

Preferred Names: Loc1p

NP_116656.1

Nucleolar protein involved in the asymmetric localization of ASH1 mRNA; binds cooperatively with She2p to the E3 zip-code element in the 3'-UTR of the mRNA; constituent of 66S pre-ribosomal particles involved in pre-rRNA processing and nuclear export of the 60S subunit; may facilitate Rpl43p loading; required post-transcriptionally for efficient retrotransposition; absence results in decreased Ty1 Gag:GFP protein levels; relocalizes from nucleus to cytoplasm upon DNA replication stress
