The nuclear GTPase Gsp1p can affect proper telomeric function through the Sir4 protein in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The small Ras-like GTPase Ran/Gsp1p is a highly conserved nuclear protein required for the nucleocytoplasmic trafficking of macromolecules. Recent findings suggest that the Ran/Gsp1p pathway may have additional roles in several aspects of nuclear structure and function, including spindle assembly, nuclear envelope formation, nuclear pore complex assembly and RNA processing. Here, we provide evidence that Gsp1p can regulate telomeric function in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We show that overexpression of PRP20, encoding the Gsp1p GDP/GTP nuclear exchange factor, specifically weakens telomeric silencing without detectably affecting nucleocytoplasmic transport. In addition to this silencing defect, we show that Rap1p and Sir3p delocalize from their normal telomeric foci. Interestingly, Gsp1p was found to interact genetically and physically with the telomeric component Sir4p. Taken together, these results suggest that the GSP1 pathway could regulate proper telomeric function in yeast through Sir4p.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
