The regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes relies largely on the action of exoribonucleases, evolutionarily conserved enzymes that digest decapped messenger RNAs in the 5'-3' direction. The activity of Xrn1, the major yeast exoribonuclease, is regulated by targeted changes in its cellular localisation in direct response to the cell's metabolic state. When fermentable carbon sources are available, active Xrn1 is diffusely localised in the cytosol. Upon depletion of these sources, Xrn1 is sequestered at the plasma membrane-associated protein complex, the eisosome, and becomes inactive. Although this phenomenon has been described previously, the molecular mechanisms underlying these changes remain unknown. We report that the binding of Xrn1 to the plasma membrane is subject to glycolytic flux, rather than the availability of a fermentable carbon source, is independent of TORC1 activity and requires the core eisosomal proteins Pil1 and Lsp1. We identify the SH3-like domain of the Xrn1 protein as a putative interaction domain. In addition, we show that when expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the human orthologue of Xrn1 mirrors its yeast counterpart, i.e., it segregates to the eisosome under conditions of halted glycolysis. Our results not only advance our understanding of Xrn1 regulation but also indicate that this regulatory principle is conserved from yeast to humans.
