A role for Mog1 in H2Bub1 and H3K4me3 regulation affecting RNAPII transcription and mRNA export. EMBO Rep 2018; 19:embr.201845992.

Abstract
Monoubiquitination of histone H2B (to H2Bub1) is required for downstream events including histone H3 methylation, transcription, and mRNA export. The mechanisms and players regulating these events have not yet been completely delineated. Here, we show that the conserved Ran-binding protein Mog1 is required to sustain normal levels of H2Bub1 and H3K4me3 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mog1 is needed for gene body recruitment of Rad6, Bre1, and Rtf1 that are involved in H2B ubiquitination and genetically interacts with these factors. We provide evidence that the absence of MOG1 impacts on cellular processes such as transcription, DNA replication, and mRNA export, which are linked to H2Bub1. Importantly, the mRNA export defect in mog1Δ strains is exacerbated by the absence of factors that decrease H2Bub1 levels. Consistent with a role in sustaining H2Bub and H3K4me3 levels, Mog1 co-precipitates with components that participate in these modifications such as Bre1, Rtf1, and the COMPASS-associated factors Shg1 and Sdc1. These results reveal a novel role for Mog1 in H2B ubiquitination, transcription, and mRNA biogenesis.

Abstract
Zinc-finger domains are found in many nucleic acid-binding proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Proteins carrying zinc-finger domains have important roles in various nuclear transactions, including transcription, mRNA processing and mRNA export; however, for many individual zinc-finger proteins in eukaryotes, the exact function of the protein is not fully understood. Here, we report that Red5 is involved in efficient suppression of specific mRNAs during vegetative growth of Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Red5, which contains five C3H1-type zinc-finger domains, localizes to the nucleus where it forms discrete dots. A red5 point mutation, red5-2, results in the upregulation of specific meiotic mRNAs in vegetative mutant red5-2 cells; northern blot data indicated that these meiotic mRNAs in red5-2 cells have elongated poly(A) tails. RNA-fluorescence in situ hybridization results demonstrate that poly(A)+ RNA species accumulate in the nucleolar regions of red5-deficient cells. Moreover, Red5 genetically interacts with several mRNA export factors. Unexpectedly, three components of the nuclear pore complex also suppress a specific set of meiotic mRNAs. These results indicate that Red5 function is important to meiotic mRNA degradation; they also suggest possible connections among selective mRNA decay, mRNA export and the nuclear pore complex in vegetative fission yeast.

Abstract
Mog1 is conserved from yeast to mammal, but its function is obscure. We isolated yeast genes that rescued a temperature-sensitive death of S. cerevisiae Scmog1Delta, and of S. pombe Spmog1(ts). Scmog1Delta was rescued by Opi3p, a phospholipid N-methyltransferase, in addition to S. cerevisiae Ran-homologue Gsp1p, and a RanGDP binding protein Ntf2p. On the other hand, Spmog1(ts) was rescued by Cid13 that is a poly (A) polymerase specific for suc22(+) mRNA encoding a subunit of ribonucleotide reductase, Ssp1 that is a protein kinase involved in stress response pathway, and Crp79 that is required for mRNA export, in addition to Spi1, S. pombe Ran-homologue, and Nxt2, S. pombe homologue of Ntf2p. Consistent with the identification of those suppressors, lack of ScMog1p dislocates Opi3p from the nuclear membrane and all of Spmog1(ts) showed the nuclear accumulation of mRNA. Furthermore, SpMog1 was co-precipitated with Nxt2 and Cid13.

Abstract
Yeast Sln1p is an osmotic stress sensor with histidine kinase activity. Modulation of Sln1 kinase activity in response to changes in the osmotic environment regulates the activity of the osmotic response mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway and the activity of the Skn7p transcription factor, both important for adaptation to changing osmotic stress conditions. Many aspects of Sln1 function, such as how kinase activity is regulated to allow a rapid response to the continually changing osmotic environment, are not understood. To gain insight into Sln1p function, we conducted a two-hybrid screen to identify interactors. Mog1p, a protein that interacts with the yeast Ran1 homolog, Gsp1p, was identified in this screen. The interaction with Mog1p was characterized in vitro, and its importance was assessed in vivo. mog1 mutants exhibit defects in SLN1-SKN7 signal transduction and mislocalization of the Skn7p transcription factor. The requirement for Mog1p in normal localization of Skn7p to the nucleus does not fully account for the mog1-related defects in SLN1-SKN7 signal transduction, raising the possibility that Mog1p may play a role in Skn7 binding and activation of osmotic response genes.

Abstract
We have characterized Schizosaccharomyces pombe open reading frames encoding potential orthologues of constituents of the evolutionarily conserved Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nup84 vertebrate Nup107-160 nuclear pore subcomplex, namely Nup133a, Nup133b, Nup120, Nup107, Nup85, and Seh1. In spite of rather weak sequence conservation, in vivo analyses demonstrated that these S. pombe proteins are localized at the nuclear envelope. Biochemical data confirmed the organization of these nucleoporins within conserved complexes. Although examination of the S. cerevisiae and S. pombe deletion mutants revealed different viability phenotypes, functional studies indicated that the involvement of this complex in nuclear pore distribution and mRNA export has been conserved between these highly divergent yeasts. Unexpectedly, microscopic analyses of some of the S. pombe mutants revealed cell division defects at the restrictive temperature (abnormal septa and mitotic spindles and chromosome missegregation) that were reminiscent of defects occurring in several S. pombe GTPase Ran (Ran(Sp))/Spi1 cycle mutants. Furthermore, deletion of nup120 moderately altered the nuclear location of Ran(Sp)/Spi1, whereas overexpression of a nonfunctional Ran(Sp)/Spi1-GFP allele was specifically toxic in the Deltanup120 and Deltanup133b mutant strains, indicating a functional and genetic link between constituents of the S. pombe Nup107-120 complex and of the Ran(Sp)/Spi1 pathway.

Abstract
This review focuses on the control of nuclear import and export pathways by the small GTPase Ran. Transport of signal-containing cargo substrates is mediated by receptors that bind to the cargo proteins and RNAs and deliver them to the appropriate cellular compartment. Ran is an evolutionarily conserved member of the Ras superfamily that regulates all receptor-mediated transport between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. We describe the identification and characterization of the RanGTPase and its binding partners: the guanine nucleotide exchange factor, RanGEF; the GTPase activating protein, RanGAP; the soluble import and export receptors; Ran-binding domain-(RBD) containing proteins; and NTF2 and related factors.

Abstract
The Ran GTPase plays a key role in nucleocytoplasmic transport. In its GTP-bound form, it directly interacts with members of the importin β family of nuclear transport receptors and modulates their association with cargo. Work in cell-free higher-eukaryote systems has demonstrated additional roles for Ran in spindle and nuclear envelope formation during mitosis. However, until recently, no Ran-target proteins in these cellular processes were known. Several groups have now identified importin β as one important target of Ran during mitotic spindle formation. This finding suggests that Ran uses the same effectors to regulate different cellular processes.
