results suggest that Scd6 can (i) recruit Dhh1 to confer translational repression and (ii) activate mRNA decapping by Dcp2 with attendant degradation of specific mRNAs in vivo, in a manner dependent on the Scd6 LSm domain and modulated by Ccr4

This recruitment requires Hrr25 kinase activity and the Dcp2 decapping enzyme, a core constituent of these RNP granules. Interestingly, the data indicate that this localization sequesters active Hrr25 away from the remainder of the cytoplasm and thereby shields this enzyme from the degradation machinery during these periods of stress.

Results show that C-terminal domain of Dcp2 includes a set of conserved negative and positive regulatory elements reveal a pivotal role for the Dcp2 in mRNA decapping and lead to a new model for decapping enzyme regulation in vivo.
