Regulation of Rim4 distribution, function, and stability during meiosis by PKA, Cdc14, and 14-3-3 proteins
Summary: Meiotic gene expression in budding yeast is tightly controlled by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), with the meiosis-specific RBP Rim4 playing a key role in sequestering mid-late meiotic transcripts to prevent premature translation. However, the mechanisms governing assembly and disassembly of t...

description | Summary: Meiotic gene expression in budding yeast is tightly controlled by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), with the meiosis-specific RBP Rim4 playing a key role in sequestering mid-late meiotic transcripts to prevent premature translation. However, the mechanisms governing assembly and disassembly of the Rim4-mRNA complex, critical for Rim4’s function and stability, remain poorly understood. In this study, we unveil regulation of the Rim4 ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex by the yeast 14-3-3 proteins Bmh1 and Bmh2. These proteins form a Rim4-Bmh1-Bmh2 heterotrimeric complex that expels mRNAs from Rim4 binding. We identify four Bmh1/2 binding sites (BBSs) on Rim4, with two residing within the RNA recognition motifs (RRMs). Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of serine/threonine (S/T) residues at these BBSs by PKA kinase and Cdc14 phosphatase activities primarily control formation of Rim4-Bmh1/2, regulating Rim4’s subcellular distribution, function, and stability. These findings shed light on the intricate post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms governing meiotic gene expression. |
