We have isolated Gle1 homologue (named as spgle1) as a partial multicopy suppressor of the synthetic lethality of rae1-167 elf1-21 in fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The spgle1 is also able to complement partially temperature-sensitive phenotype of rae1-167 only at a lower restrictive temperature. The spgle1 gene contains one intron and encodes a 480 amino-acid protein with predicted molecular weight of 56.2 kDa. We showed that spgle1 gene is essential for vegetative growth and functional Gle1-GFP protein is localized mainly in NPC. The accumulation of poly(A)+ RNA in the nucleus is exhibited when expression of spgle1 is repressed or over-expressed. These results suggest that the spGle1 protein is also involved in mRNA export in fission yeast.

We have isolated previously three synthetic lethal mutants in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, which genetically interact with mex67, in order to identify the genes involved in mRNA export. A novel nup97 gene was isolated by complementation of the growth defect in one of the synthetic lethal mutants, SLMex3. The nup97 gene contains one intron and encodes an 851 amino-acid protein that is similar to nucleoporins, Npp106p in S. pombe and Nic96p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The nup97 gene is essential for vegetative growth, and nup97 null mutant harboring pREP41X-Nup97 showed poly(A)+ RNA export defect when expression of nup97 is repressed in the presence of thiamine. These results suggest that nup97 is involved in mRNA export from the nucleus to cytoplasm.
