Description of YOR274W: Delta 2-isopentenyl pyrophosphate:tRNA isopentenyl transferase; required for biosynthesis of the modified base isopentenyladenosine in mitochondrial and cytoplasmic tRNAs; gene is nuclear and encodes two isozymic forms; converts to a prion form, and prion conversion contributes to azole antifungal resistance by upregulating ergosterol biosynthesis[1][2][3][4]
