TheSUF13andSUF14genes were identified among extragenic suppressors of +1 frameshift mutations.SUF13is synonymous withMBF1, a single-copy nonessential gene coding for a POLII transcription factor. Thesuf13-1mutation is a two-nucleotide deletion in theSUF13/MBF1coding region. Asuf13::TRP1null mutant suppresses +1 frameshift mutations, indicating that suppression is caused by loss ofSUF13function. Thesuf13-1suppressor alters sensitivity to aminoglycoside antibiotics and reduces the accumulation ofhis4-713mRNA, suggesting that suppression is mediated at the translational level. TheSUF14gene is synonymous withRPS3, a single-copy essential gene that codes for the ribosomal protein S3. Thesuf14-1mutation is a missense substitution in the coding region. Increased expression of S3 limits the accumulation ofSUF14mRNA, suggesting that expression is autoregulated. A frameshift mutation inSUF14that prevents full-length translation eliminated regulation, indicating that S3 is required for regulation. UsingCUP1-SUF14andSUF14-lacZfusions, run-on transcription assays, and estimates of mRNA half-life, our results show that transcription plays a minor role if any in regulation and that the 5′-UTR is necessary but not sufficient for regulation. A change in mRNA decay rate may be the primary mechanism for regulation.
