MAF1 [YDR005C]
Highly conserved negative regulator of RNA polymerase III; involved in tRNA processing and stability; inhibits tRNA degradation via rapid tRNA decay (RTD) pathway; binds N-terminal domain of Rpc160p subunit of Pol III to prevent closed-complex formation; regulated by phosphorylation mediated by TORC1, protein kinase A, Sch9p, casein kinase 2; localizes to cytoplasm during vegetative growth and translocates to nucleus and nucleolus under stress conditions
Synonyms: MAF1, MAF1p, P41910, P41910p, YD8119.11C ...
