The pentatricopeptide repeat protein Rmd9 recognizes the dodecameric element in the 3′-UTRs of yeast mitochondrial mRNAs
Open accessAbstract
comprise a dodecamer sequence element that confers RNA stability and 3'-end processing via an unknown mechanism. Here, we isolated the protein that binds the dodecamer and identified it as Rmd9, a factor that is known to stabilize yeast mitochondrial RNA. We show that Rmd9 associates with mRNA around dodecamer elements in vivo and that recombinant Rmd9 specifically binds the element in vitro. The crystal structure of Rmd9 bound to its dodecamer target reveals that Rmd9 belongs to the family of pentatricopeptide (PPR) proteins and uses a previously unobserved mode of specific RNA recognition. Rmd9 protects RNA from degradation by the mitochondrial 3'-exoribonuclease complex mtEXO in vitro, indicating that recognition and binding of the dodecamer element by Rmd9 confers stability to yeast mitochondrial mRNAs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
