Abstract excerpt
The tRNA m(1)A58 methyltransferase is composed of two subunits encoded by the essential genes TRM6 and TRM61 (formerly GCD10 and GCD14). The trm6-504 mutation results in a defective m(1)A methyltransferase (Mtase) and a temperature-sensitive growth phenotype that is attributable to the absence of m(1)A58 and consequential tRNA(i)(Met) instability. We used a genetic approach to identify the genes responsible for...
