A mutation at a new locus denotedtsr1 which lies very close to theery1 locus and 21S rRNA gene in mitochondrial DNA ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae, confers conditional respiratory deficiency on cells grown at low temperature, namely 18°. Studies on mitochondria isolated from a strain carrying the mutatedtsr1 locus demonstrate that the rate of mitochondrial protein synthesis is cold-sensitive at 18°. The large subunit of the mitochondrial ribosomes isolated from the mutant strain is unstable during extraction and the isolated ribosomes are shown to be defective in catalyzing the poly U-directed synthesis of polyphenylalanine. It is concluded that thetsr1 locus is involved in the determination of the properties of the large subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome. |
