Activation of an essential calcium signaling pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Kch1 and Kch2, putative low-affinity potassium transporters.
In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mating pheromones activate a high-affinity Ca(2+) influx system (HACS) that activates calcineurin and is essential for cell survival. Here we identify extracellular K(+) and a homologous pair of transmembrane proteins, Kch1 and Kch2 (Prm6), as necessary components of the HACS activation mechanism. Expression of Kch1 and especially Kch2 was strongly...
متن کاملTRK2 is not a low-affinity potassium transporter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
TRK1 and TRK2 encode proteins involved in K+ uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A kinetic study of Rb+ influx in trk1 TRK2, trk1 TRK2D, and trk1 trk2 mutants reveals that TRK2 shows moderate affinity for Rb+. K(+)-starved trk1 delta TRK2 cells show a low-affinity component accounting for almost the total Vmax of the influx and a moderate-affinity component exhibiting a very low Vmax. Overexpre...
متن کاملCalcium signaling and sugar-induced activation of plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.
In this work, we show that glucose-induced activation of plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is strongly dependent on calcium metabolism and that the glucose sensor Snf3p works in a parallel way with the G protein Gpa2p in the control of the pathway. The role of Snf3p is played by the Snf3p C-terminal tail, since in a strain with the deletion of the SNF3 gene, but also exp...
متن کاملAcid stress response in Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves ionic homeostasis and calcium signaling pathway
To maintain their productive capacity, yeasts cells need to adapt to environmental changes that occur during production process. Acid stress response is of interest, because such exposure occurs under industrial conditions, such as the acidic treatment before cell recycling in fermentation process. Resembling the response to weak organic acids, resistance to inorganic acids exposure involves ch...
