sce:TYW1

Genes: 26

SGD Description
Iron-sulfer protein required for synthesis of Wybutosine modified tRNA; Wybutosine is a modified guanosine found at the 3'-position adjacent to the anticodon of phenylalanine tRNA which supports reading frame maintenance by stabilizing codon-anticodon interactions; induction by Yap5p in response to iron provides protection from high iron toxicity; overexpression results in increased cellular iron


PomBase Description
wybutosine biosynthesis protein Tyw1 (predicted)


AspGD Description
Ortholog(s) have role in wybutosine biosynthetic process and endoplasmic reticulum localization
