The leucine-NH4+ uptake regulator Any1 limits growth as part of a general amino acid control response to loss of La protein by fission yeast.

The sla1+ gene of Schizosachharoymces pombe encodes La protein which promotes proper processing of precursor-tRNAs. Deletion of sla1 (sla1Δ) leads to disrupted tRNA processing and sensitivity to target of rapamycin (TOR) inhibition. Consistent with this, media containing NH4+ inhibits leucine uptake...
