Abstract


Under growth-limiting conditions, budding yeast shut down transcription of genes of the translation apparatus. Recent studies have shown that this response is signaled, in part, by multiple pathways that converge on Maf1, leading to a change of this protein's phosphorylation state and its relocation to the nucleus, where it represses RNA polymerase III.
