    Notes: Abstract  The yeast PRP20 protein is homologous to the RCC1 protein of higher eukaryotes and is required for mRNA export and maintenance of nuclear structure. RCC1/PRP20 act as guanine nucleotide exchange factors for the nuclear Ras-like Ran/GSP1 proteins. In a search for prp20-10 allele-specific high-copy-number suppressors, the KSP1 locus, encoding a serine/threonine protein kinase was isolated. Ksp1p is a nuclear protein that is not essential for vegetative growth of yeast. Inactivation of the kinase activity by a mutation affecting the catalytic center of the Ksp1p eliminated the suppressing activity. Based on the isolation of a protein kinase as a high-copy-number suppressor, the phosphorylation of Prp20p was examined. In vivo labeling experiments showed that Prp20p is a phosphoprotein; however, deletion of the KSP1 kinase did not affect Prp20p phosphorylation.

    Notes: Summary Mutations in the PRP20 gene of yeast show a pleiotropic phenotype, in which both mRNA metabolism and nuclear structure are affected. srm1 mutants, defective in the same gene, influence the signal transduction pathway for the pheromone response. The yeast PRP20/SRM1 protein is highly homologous to the RCC1 protein of man, hamster and frog. In mammalian cells, this protein is a negative regulator for initiation of chromosome condensation. We report the analysis of two, independently isolated, recessive temperature-sensitive prp20 mutants. They have identical G to A transitions, leading to the alteration of a highly conserved glycine residue to glutamic acid. By immunofluorescence microscopy the PRP20 protein was localized in the nucleus. Expression of the RCC1 protein can complement the temperature-sensitive phenotype of prp20 mutants, demonstrating the functional similarity of the yeast and mammalian proteins.
