Mutations in Nuclear Gene Cyt-4 of Neurospora Crassa Result in Pleiotropic Defects in Processing and Splicing of Mitochondrial Rnas 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
The nuclear cyt-4 mutants of Neurospora crassa have been shown previously to be defective in splicing the group I intron in the mitochondrial large rRNA gene and in 3' end synthesis of the mitochondrial large rRNA. Here, Northern hybridization experiments show that the cyt-4-1 mutant has alterations in a number of mitochondrial RNA processing pathways, including those for cob, coI, coII and ATPase 6 mRNAs, as well as mitochondrial tRNAs. Defects in these pathways include inhibition of 5' and 3' end processing, accumulation of aberrant RNA species, and inhibition of splicing of both group I introns in the cob gene. The various defects in mitochondrial RNA synthesis in the cyt-4-1 mutant cannot be accounted for by deficiency of mitochondrial protein synthesis or energy metabolism, and they suggest that the cyt-4-1 mutant is defective in a component or components required for processing and/or turnover of a number of different mitochondrial RNAs. Defective splicing of the mitochondrial large rRNA intron in the cyt-4-1 mutant may be a secondary effect of failure to synthesize pre-rRNAs having the correct 3' end. However, a similar explanation cannot be invoked to account for defective splicing of the cob pre-mRNA introns, and the cyt-4-1 mutation may directly affect splicing of these introns. 相似文献
