Abstract:

ABSTRACT Glucose transport kinetics and mRNA levels of different glucose transporters were determined in Saccharomyces cerevisiaestrains expressing different sugar kinases. During exponential growth on glucose, a hxk2 null strain exhibited high-affinity hexose transport associated with an elevated transcription of the genesHXT2 and HXT7, encoding high-affinity transporters, and a diminished expression of the HXT1 andHXT3 genes, encoding low-affinity transporters. Deletion ofHXT7 revealed that the high-affinity component is mostly due to HXT7; however, a previously unidentified very-high-affini

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Hexokinase II is an enzyme central to glucose metabolism and glucose repression in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Deletion of HXK2, the gene which encodes hexokinase II, dramatically changed the physiology of S. cerevisiae. The hxk2-null mutant strain displayed fully oxidative growth at high glucose concentrations in early exponential batch cultures, resulting in an initial absence of fermentative products such as ethanol, a postponed and shortened diauxic shift, and higher biomass yields. Several intracellular changes were associated with the deletion of hexokinase II. Thehxk2 m

We recently showed that activated Ras proteins are localized to the plasma membrane and in the nucleus in wild-type cells growing exponentially on glucose, while in thehxk2Δ strain they accumulated mainly in mitochondria.

Here we show that addition of acetic acid to wild-type cells results in a rapid recruitment of Ras-GTP from the nucleus and the plasma membrane to the mitochondria, providing a further proof that Ras proteins m

ABSTRACT Under specific environmental conditions, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae can undergo a morphological switch to a pseudohyphal growth pattern. Pseudohyphal differentiation is generally studied upon induction by nitrogen limitation in the presence of glucose. It is known to be controlled by several signaling pathways, including mitogen-activated protein kinase, cyclic AMP-protein kinase A (cAMP-PKA), and Snf1 kinase pathways. We show that the alpha-glucoside sugars maltose and maltotriose, and especially sucrose, are more potent inducers of filamentation than glucose. Sucrose even in

ABSTRACT Nutrient-limited Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells rapidly resume proliferative growth when transferred into glucose medium.

We have tested the ability of mutations in known glucose signaling pathways to block glucose induction of CLN3, BCK2, and CDC28. We find that loss of the Snf3 and Rgt2 glucose sensors does not block glucose induction, nor does deletion of HXK2, encoding the hexokinase isoenzyme involved in glucose repression signaling. Rap

Efficient utilization of both glucose and xylose from lignocellulosic biomass would be economically beneficial for biofuel production. Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with essential genes and metabolic networks for xylose metabolism can ferment xylose; however, the efficiency of xylose fermentation is much lower than that of glucose, the preferred carbon source of yeast. Implications from our previous work suggest that activation of the glucose sensing system may benefit xylose metabolism.

ABSTRACT Transcription activation in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) involves ordered recruitment of transcription factor complexes, such as TFIID, SAGA, and Mot1p. Previously, we showed that both Mot1p and Taf1p are recruited to the HXT2 and HXT4 genes, which encode hexose transporter proteins. Here, we show that SAGA also binds to the HXT2 and HXT4 promoters and plays a pivotal role in the recruitment of Mot1p and Taf1p. The deletion of either SPT3 or SPT8 reduces Mot1p binding to HXT2 and HXT4. Surprisingly, the deletion of GCN5 reduces Taf1p binding to both promoters. When GCN5 is deleted

Hxk2p interacts with Mig1p to regulate gene transcription in the nucleus. Here, we investigated the effect of nucleus-localized Hxk2p and Mig1p on xylose fermentation.

AbstractHexokinase 2 (Hxk2) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a dual function hexokinase, acting as a glycolytic enzyme and being involved in the transcriptional regulation of glucose-repressible genes. Relief from glucose repression is accompanied by phosphorylation of Hxk2 at serine 15, which has been attributed to the protein kinase Tda1. To explore the role of Tda1 beyond Hxk2 phosphorylation, the proteomic consequences of TDA1 deficiency were investigated by difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) comparing a wild type and a Δtda1 deletion mutant.

Abstract:

Abstract Although 30 years have passed since the description of sugar-induced cell death (SICD), the specific molecular mechanism that triggers this process remains unclear. This paper attempts to shed light on the relationship between SICD and glucose catabolism. In yeast cells, glucose is involved not only in energy-producing processes but also in the synthesis of reserve hydrocarbons. It is known that disruption of trehalose synthesis leads to significant changes in the physiology of S. cerevisiae. The present study shows that deletion of the TPS1 gene resulted in a 44% suppression of SICD

Abstract:

Abstract In budding yeast, the presence of glucose, a preferred energy source, suppresses the expression of respiration-related genes through a process known as glucose repression. Conversely, under glucose starvation conditions, Snf1 phosphorylates and activates downstream factors, relieving this repression and allowing cells to adapt. Recently, the Tda1 protein kinase has been implicated in these glucose starvation responses, although its function remains largely uncharacterized. In this study, we demonstrate that Snf1 and yeast glycogen synthase kinase 3-beta (GSK3-β) independently phosphor

Abstract:

Abstract Co-consumption of D-xylose and D-glucose by Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential for cost-efficient cellulosic bioethanol production. There is a need for improved sugar conversion rates to minimize fermentation times. Previously, we have employed evolutionary engineering to enhance D-xylose transport and metabolism in the presence of D-glucose in a xylose-fermenting S. cerevisiae strain devoid of hexokinases. Re-introduction of Hxk2 in the high performance xylose-consuming strains restored D-glucose utilization during D-xylose/D-glucose co-metabolism, but at rates lower than the non-

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs), microbial secondary metabolites with ultraviolet (UV) absorption properties, are promising natural sunscreen materials. Due to the low efficiency of extracting MAAs from natural producers, production in heterologous hosts has recently received attention. Shinorine is a well characterized MAA with strong UV-A absorption property. Previous, we developed Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain producing shinorine by introducing four shinorine biosynthetic genes from cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme. Shinorine is produced from sedoheptulose 7-phosphate (S7P),

Abstract Background Cellular aging is best studied in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. As an example of a pleiotropic trait, yeast lifespan is influenced by hundreds of interconnected genes. However, no quantitative methods are currently available to infer system-level changes in gene networks during cellular aging. Results We propose a parsimonious mathematical model of cellular aging based on stochastic gene interaction networks. This network model is made of only non-aging components: the strength of gene interactions declines with a constant mortality rate. Death of a cell occur

Abstract Aims Some studies have indicated that the alterations in cellular morphology induced by selenite [Se(Ⅳ)] may be attributed to its inhibitory effects on cell division. However, whether the genes associated with cell division are implicated in Se(Ⅳ) metabolism remains unclear. Methods and results The ftsK gene in Rahnella aquatilis HX2 was mutated with an in-frame deletion strategy. The ftsK mutation strongly reduced the tolerance to selenite [Se(Ⅳ)] and the production of red elemental selenium [Se(0)] in R. aquatilis HX2, and this effect could not be attributed solely to the inhibition

These glycans constitute a major obstacle in the development of VRC01-class antibodies, as unmutated antibody forms are unable to accommodate them. Although immunizations of knock-in mice expressing

ABSTRACT Whereas the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae shows great preference for glucose as a carbon source, a deletion mutant in trehalose-6-phosphate synthase, tps1Δ, is highly sensitive to even a few millimolar glucose, which triggers apoptosis and cell death. Glucose addition to tps1Δ cells causes deregulation of glycolysis with hyperaccumulation of metabolites upstream and depletion downstream of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). The apparent metabolic barrier at the level of GAPDH has been difficult to explain. We show that GAPDH isozyme deletion, especially Tdh3, further a

Abstract Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a widely used strain for ethanol fermentation; meanwhile, efficient utilization of glucose could effectively promote ethanol production. The PFK1 gene is a key gene for intracellular glucose metabolism in S. cerevisiae. Our previous work suggested that although deletion of the PFK1 gene could confer higher oxidative tolerance to S. cerevisiae cells, the PFK1Δ strain was prone to contamination by other microorganisms. High interspecies microbial competition ability is vital for the growth and survival of microorganisms in co-cultures. The result of our previ
