Abstract


The yeast nuclear gene YME1 was one of six genes recently identified in a screen for mutations that elevate the rate at which DNA escapes from mitochondria and migrates to the nucleus. yme1 mutations, including a deletion, cause four known recessive phenotypes: an elevation in the rate at which copies of TRP1 and ARS1, integrated into the mitochondrial genome, escape to the nucleus; a heat-sensitive respiratory-growth defect; a cold-sensitive growth defect on rich glucose medium; and synthetic lethality in rho- (cytoplasmic petite) cells. The cloned YME1 gene complements all of these phenotypes. The gene product, Yme1p, is immunologically detectable as an 82-kDa protein present in mitochondria. Yme1p is a member of a family of homologous putative ATPases, including Sec18p, Pas1p, Cdc48p, TBP-1, and the FtsH protein. Yme1p is most similar to the Escherichia coli FtsH protein, an essential protein involved in septum formation during cell division. This observation suggests the hypothesis that Yme1p may play a role in mitochondrial fusion and/or division.
