ABSTRACT
Werner's syndrome (WS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by premature aging. The gene responsible for WS encodes protein homologous to Escherichia coli RecQ. Here we describe novel Wernerhelicase interacting (WHIP), which interacts with the N-terminal portion of Werner (WRN), containing exonuclease domain. WHIP, shows homology replication factor C family proteins, conserved from E. human. Ectopically expressed WHIP and WRN co-localized in granular structures nucleus. functional relationship between was indicated genetic analysis yeast cells. Disruptants SGS1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae, homologue yeast, show an accelerated aging phenotype high sensitivity methyl methanesulfonate as compared wild-type Disruption (yWHIP) cells andsgs1 disruptants resulted slightly enhancement sgs1disruptants, respectively. In contrast, disruption theyWHIP partially alleviated sgs1 disruptants. slow growth suppressor 1 proliferating cell nuclear antigen helicase-interacting polymerase chain reaction reverse transcriptase-mediated PCR maltose-binding hemagglutinin green fluorescent mouse human calcium- magnesium-free phosphate-buffered saline amino acid extract-peptone-adenine-dextrose.
