What's a GeneRIF?

A critical thioester linkage between Urm1 and Uba4 residue Cys225.This linkage is indispensable for the Urm1 intramolecular transfer between the two domains of Uba4 and it is thus, essential for tRNA thiolation .
Title: The Uba4 domain interplay is mediated via a thioester that is critical for tRNA thiolation through Urm1 thiocarboxylation.
ubiquitin-like Urm1.Uba4 systems are conserved and exchangeable between human and yeast cells
Title: Urmylation and tRNA thiolation functions of ubiquitin-like Uba4·Urm1 systems are conserved from yeast to man.
ubiquitin-like protein Urm1 and ubiquitin-activating enzyme-like protein Uba4, as well as Tuc1 and Tuc2, were strictly required for tRNA thio-modification
Title: Thio-modification of yeast cytosolic tRNA requires a ubiquitin-related system that resembles bacterial sulfur transfer systems.
The Uba4-Urm1 system represents the evolutionary link between protein conjugation and protein modification by sulfur carrier proteins.
Title: The sulfurtransferase activity of Uba4 presents a link between ubiquitin-like protein conjugation and activation of sulfur carrier proteins.
