Arx1 and Reil are found on late pre-60S ribosomal particles containing the export adaptor Nmd3- Arx1 is related to methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs), and Reil is a C2H2 zinc finger protein whose function in ribosome biogenesis has not been previously characterized. Arx1 and Rei1. localized predominately to the nucleus and cytoplasm, respectively, but could be coimmunoprecipitated, suggesting that they are transiently in the same 60S complex. arx1 Delta mutants showed a modest accumulation of 60S subunits in the nucleus, suggesting that Arx1 enhances 60S export. Deletion of REI1 led to cold sensitivity and redistribution of Arx1 to the cytoplasm, where it remained bound to free 60S subunits. However, deletion of ARX1 or the fusion of enhanced GFP (eGFP) to Rp125 suppressed the cold sensitivity of an rei]A mutant. The presence of eGFP on Rp125 or its neighboring protein Rp135 reduced the binding of Arx1 to 60S subunits, suggesting that Arx1 binds to 60S subunits in the vicinity of the exit tunnel. Mutations in Arx1 that disrupted its binding to 60S also suppressed an rei1 Delta mutant and restored the normal nuclear localization of Arx1. These results indicate that the cold sensitivity of rei1 Delta cells is due to the persistence of Arx1 on 60S subunits in the cytoplasm. Furthermore, these results suggest that Reil is needed for release of Arx1 from nascent 60S subunits after export to the cytoplasm but not for the subsequent nuclear import of Arx1.
