Raf60, a Novel Component of the Rpd3 Histone Deacetylase Complex Required for Rpd3 Activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Rpd3 histone deacetylase complex contains several previously characterized proteins, including Rpd3, Sin3, Sds3, Sap30, and Pho23. We purified the Rdp3 complex to near homogeneity using the tandem affinity purification method. Mass spectrometric analysis revealed the presence of a novel component, which we named Raf60. We showed that Myc-Raf60 co-fractionated with Rpd3-TAP by gel filtration chromatography, and both Myc-Rpd3 and Sin3 co-immunoprecipitated with HA-Raf60. In addition, HA-Raf60 immunoprecipitates displayed Rpd3-dependent histone deacetylase activity, and raf60 deletion resulted in loss of Rpd3 complex activity, as measured by in vitro assays. Furthermore, we found that raf60Delta cells exhibited phenotypes similar to those of rpd3Delta cells, including derepression of secreted acid phosphatase (Pho5), hypersensitivity to cycloheximide, and hypersensitivity to heat shock. Also, we found by reverse transcription-PCR that raf60Delta cells, similar to rpd3Delta cells, displayed elevated levels of PHO5 and INO1 mRNA. Our results demonstrate that Raf60 is a component of the Rpd3 histone deacetylase complex and that it is required for normal Rpd3 complex activity and repression of gene expression.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
