A multicopy genomic library of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain FL100) was screened for its ability to suppress conditionally defective mutations altering the 31 kDa subunit (rpc31-236) or the 53 kDa subunit (rpc53-254/424) of RNA polymerase III. In addition to allele-specific suppressors, we identified seven suppressor clones that acted on both mutations and also suppressed several other conditional mutations defective in RNA polymerases I or II. All these clones harbored a complete copy of the SSD1 gene. The same pleiotropic suppression pattern was found with the dominant SSD1-v allele present in some laboratory strains of S. cerevisiae. SSD1-v was previously shown to suppress mutations defective in the SIT4 gene product (a predicted protein phosphatase subunit) or in the regulatory subunit of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. We propose that the SSD1 gene product modulates the activity (or the level) of the three nuclear RNA polymerases, possibly by altering their degree of phosphorylation.

D012318 RNA Polymerase I A DNA-dependent RNA polymerase present in bacterial, plant, and animal cells. The enzyme functions in the nucleolar structure and transcribes DNA into RNA. It has different requirements for cations and salts than RNA polymerase II and III and is not inhibited by alpha-amanitin.

D012320 RNA Polymerase III A DNA-dependent RNA polymerase present in bacterial, plant, and animal cells. It functions in the nucleoplasmic structure where it transcribes DNA into RNA. It has specific requirements for cations and salt and has shown an intermediate sensitivity to alpha-amanitin in comparison to RNA polymerase I and II.

D013489 Suppression, Genetic Mutation process that restores the wild-type PHENOTYPE in an organism possessing a mutationally altered GENOTYPE. The second "suppressor" mutation may be on a different gene, on the same gene but located at a distance from the site of the primary mutation, or in extrachromosomal genes (EXTRACHROMOSOMAL INHERITANCE).
