Abstract excerpt
Expression of the yeast mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (COB) is controlled by at least 15 nuclear-encoded proteins. One of these proteins, Cbp1, is required for COB mRNA stability. Delta cbp1 null strains fail to accumulate mature COB mRNA and cannot respire. Since Delta cbp1 null strains lack mature COB transcripts, the hypothesis that Cbp1 also plays a role in translation of these mRNAs could not be tested...
