The essential yeast Tcp1 protein affects actin and microtubules.
TL;DR: It is proposed that Tcp1p is required for normal development and function of actin and microtubules either through direct or indirect interaction with the major cytoskeletal components.

SEN1, a positive effector of tRNA-splicing endonuclease in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
TL;DR: The SEN1 gene corresponds to a 6,336-bp open reading frame coding for a 2,112-amino acid protein (molecular mass, 239 kDa) as discussed by the authors.

Sen1p Performs Two Genetically Separable Functions in Transcription and Processing of U5 Small Nuclear RNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
TL;DR: The results suggest that the Sen1P–Rpb1p and Sen1p–Rnt1p interactions occur independently of each other and serve genetically separable purposes in targeting Sen1 p to function in two temporally overlapping steps in gene expression.

Inactivation of the yeast Sen1 protein affects the localization of nucleolar proteins
TL;DR: It is verified that a region in SEN1 containing a putative nuclear localization signal sequence (NLS) is necessary for nuclear targeting and found that inactivation of Sen1p by temperature shift of a strain carrying sen1-1 leads to mislocalization of two nucleolar proteins, Nopt and Ssb1.

TL;DR: Results show that transcription plays a minor role if any in regulation and that the 5'-UTR is necessary but not sufficient for regulation, and a change in mRNA decay rate may be the primary mechanism for regulation.
