Description:
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae the Rad4-Rad23 complex is involved in initial damage recognition and responsible for recruiting the other NER proteins to the site of the lesion. The Rad4-Rad23 complex is essential for both NER subpathways, Transcription Coupled Repair (TCR) and Global Genome Repair (GGR). Previously, we reported on the role of the Rad4 homologue YDR314C in NER. YDR314C is essential for preferential repair of the transcribed strand in RNA pol I transcribed rDNA. In large scale interaction studies it was shown that YDR314C physically interacts with a small protein encoded by the ORF YML011C. In the present study we show that YML011C is involved in NER and we propose to designate the YML011C ORF RAD33. Cells deleted for RAD33 display intermediate UV sensitivity that is epistatic with NER. Strand specific repair analysis shows that GGR in RNA pol II transcribed regions is completely defective in rad33 mutants whereas TCR is still active, albeit much less efficient. In RNA pol I transcribed rDNA both GGR and TCR are fully dependent on Rad33. We show that in both rad23 and rad33 cells Rad4 and YDR314C protein levels are significantly reduced. The homology of YDR314C to Rad4, together with the similar relation of both proteins to Rad33 prompted us to propose RAD34 as name for the YDR314C gene. Although the rad23rad33 double mutant is considerably more UV sensitive than a rad23 or rad33 single mutant, deletion of RAD33 in a rad23 background does not lead to a further reduction of Rad4 or Rad34 protein levels. This suggests that the role of Rad33 is not solely the stabilization of Rad4 and Rad34 but that Rad33 has an additional role in NER.
