Feature Type
ORF , Verified
Description
Lsm (Like Sm) protein; forms heteroheptameric complex (with Lsm2p, Lsm3p, Lsm4p, Lsm5p, Lsm6p, and Lsm7p) involved in degradation of cytoplasmic mRNAs; also enters the nucleus and positively regulates transcription initiation; unlike most Sm-like proteins, Lsm1p requires both its SM-domain and C-terminal domain for RNA-binding; binds to mRNAs under glucose starvation, most often in the 3' UTR; forms cytoplasmic foci upon DNA replication stress 2 3 4 5 6 7

Gene Ontology Details

Gene Ontology

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code. SGD has manually curated and high-throughput GO Annotations, both derived from the literature, as well as computational, or predicted, annotations. Click "Gene Ontology Details" to view all GO information and evidence for this locus as well as biological processes it shares with other genes.


Summary
Subunit of the LSM1-7-PAT1 complex; binds RNA caps, mRNA, and chromatin; involved in mRNA decapping and decay; localizes to the P-body, nucleus, and cytoplasm

Cellular Component

Manually Curated

Complex

Macromolecular complex annotations are imported from the Complex Portal. These annotations have been derived from physical molecular interaction evidence extracted from the literature and cross-referenced in the entry, or by curator inference from information on homologs in closely related species or by inference from scientific background.


Phenotype Details

Phenotype

Phenotype annotations for a gene are curated single mutant phenotypes that require an observable (e.g., "cell shape"), a qualifier (e.g., "abnormal"), a mutant type (e.g., null), strain background, and a reference. In addition, annotations are classified as classical genetics or high-throughput (e.g., large scale survey, systematic mutation set). Whenever possible, allele information and additional details are provided. Click "Phenotype Details" to view all phenotype annotations and evidence for this locus as well as phenotypes it shares with other genes.


Summary
LSM1/YJL124C is a non-essential gene; null mutants are viable, slow-growing, and associated with a variety of phenotypes that significantly affect cellular functions and overall fitness. Mutants lacking LSM1 exhibit decreased resistance to acidic pH levels, which may compromise their survival in acidic environments, and an increased rate of apoptosis, indicating heightened programmed cell death. The budding pattern and cell shape are abnormal, suggesting disruptions in normal cellular processes, while cell size is decreased. The chronological lifespan of lsm1 null mutants is also reduced, reflecting a potential trade-off between growth and longevity. Competitive fitness is impaired, leading to decreased viability in resource-limited conditions. Endocytosis is reduced, which may hinder nutrient uptake, and the rate of fermentative growth is diminished, indicating metabolic challenges. Growth during the exponential phase is also decreased, and these mutants exhibit increased sensitivity to heat, making them more vulnerable to elevated temperatures. Resistance to killer toxins is decreased, and nuclear morphology is abnormal, which could impact cellular organization and function. Although oxidative stress resistance is increased, UV resistance is decreased, further underscoring their vulnerability to environmental stressors. Vacuolar morphology is abnormal, potentially disrupting cellular storage and waste management. Overexpression of LSM1 decreases viability.
Interaction Details

Interaction

Interaction annotations are curated by BioGRID and include physical or genetic interactions observed between at least two genes. An interaction annotation is composed of the interaction type, name of the interactor, assay type (e.g., Two-Hybrid), annotation type (e.g., manual or high-throughput), and a reference, as well as other experimental details. Click "Interaction Details" to view all interaction annotations and evidence for this locus, including an interaction visualization.

Expression Details

Expression

Expression data are derived from records contained in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and are first log2 transformed and normalized. Referenced datasets may contain one or more condition(s), and as a result there may be a greater number of conditions than datasets represented in a single clickable histogram bar. The histogram division at 0.0 separates the down-regulated (green) conditions and datasets from those that are up-regulated (red).
