Abstract
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes PRP2 , PRP16 , and PRP22 encode pre-mRNA splicing factors that belong to the highly conserved “DEAH” family of putative RNA helicases. We previously identified two additional members of this family, JA1 and JA2 . To investigate its biological function, we cloned the JA1 gene and generated alleles carrying mutations identical to those found in highly conserved regions of other members of the DEAH family. A ja1 allele carrying a mutation identical to that in the temperature-sensitive (ts) prp22–1 gene conferred ts phenotype when integrated into the genome of a wild-type strain by gene replacement. Northern analysis of RNA obtained from the ts strain shifted to a nonpermissive temperature revealed accumulation of unspliced pre-mRNAs and excised intron lariats. Furthermore, analysis of splicing complexes showed that intron lariats accumulated in spliceosomes. The results presented indicate that JA1 encodes a p re-m R NA p rocessing factor (Prp) involved in disassembly of spliceosomes after the release of mature mRNA. We have therefore renamed this gene PRP43 .
