The Saccharomyces cerevisiae actin patch protein App1p is a phosphatidate phosphatase enzyme.
BACKGROUND Phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP) plays diverse roles in lipid metabolism and cell signaling. RESULTS A novel yeast PAP is identified as the actin patch protein encoded by APP1. CONCLUSION APP1 and other known genes (PAH1, DPP1, LPP1) are responsible for all detectable PAP activity in yeast. SIGNIFICANCE Identification of App1p as a PAP enzyme will facilitate the understanding of...
متن کاملCisplatin cytotoxicity is dependent on mitochondrial respiration in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Objective(s): To understand the role of mitochondrial respiration in cisplatin sensitivity, we have employed wild-type and mitochondrial DNA depleted Rho0 yeast cells. Materials and Methods: Wild type and Rho0 yeast cultured in fermentable and non-fermentable sugar containing media, were studied for their sensitivity against cisplatin by monitoring growth curves, oxygen consumption, pH changes ...
متن کاملRegulation of phosphatidate phosphatase activity from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae by sphingoid bases.
The regulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae membrane-associated phosphatidate phosphatase (3-sn-phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.4) activity by sphingoid bases was examined using Triton X-100/lipid-mixed micelles. Sphingosine, phytosphingosine, and sphinganine inhibited purified preparations of the 104- and 45-kDa forms of phosphatidate phosphatase in a dose-dependent manner. The structu...
متن کاملPhosphatidate phosphatases and diacylglycerol pyrophosphate phosphatases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli.
Phosphatidate phosphatase plays a major role in the synthesis of phospholipids and triacylglycerols in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Membrane- and cytosolic-associated forms of the enzyme have been isolated and characterized. These enzymes are Mg2+-dependent and N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive. The expression of a membrane-associated form of phosphatidate phosphatase is regulated by growth pha...
