UniProt functional annotation for P46669

UniProt code: P46669.

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces.
 
Function: DNA-dependent RNA polymerases catalyze the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Component of RNA polymerase I (Pol I) which synthesizes ribosomal RNA precursors. Besides, RNA polymerase I has intrinsic RNA cleavage activity. Through its association with RRN3 is involved in recruitment of Pol I to rDNA promoters. In vitro, the A13-A43 subcomplex binds single-stranded RNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11032814, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12888498, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18160037, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24153182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24153184}.
 
Subunit: Component of the RNA polymerase I (Pol I) complex consisting of 14 subunits: RPA135, RPA190, RPC40, RPA14, RPB5, RPO26, RPA43, RPB8, RPA12, RPB10, RPC19, RPC10, RPA49 and RPA34. The complex is composed of a horseshoe-shaped core containing ten subunits (RPA135, RPA190, RPB5, RPO26, RPB8, RPB10, RPC10, RPA12, RPC19 and RPC40) where RPA135 and RPA190 form the DNA-binding cleft. Outside of the core, RPA14 and RPA43 form the stalk that mediates interactions with transcription initiation factors and newly synthesized RNA. Interacts with RPO26/ABC23 and with the initiation factor RRN3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11032814, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11717393, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12407181, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18160037, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24153182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24153184}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562095}.
Ptm: Contains an average of four phosphates per molecule.
Miscellaneous: Present with 4070 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
Similarity: Belongs to the eukaryotic RPA43 RNA polymerase subunit family. {ECO:0000305}.
