Abstract excerpt
We provide evidence that Prp4p kinase activity is required for pre-mRNA splicing in vivo and show that loss of activity impairs G1-S and G2-M progression in the cell cycle. Prp4p interacts genetically with the non-SR (serine/arginine) splicing factors Prp1p and Prp5p. Bacterially produced Prp1p is phosphorylated by Prp4p in vitro. Prp4p and Prp1p also interact in the yeast two-hybrid system. In vivo labelling...
