Intramitotic Controls in the Fission Yeast
Abs t rac t . We have used a new cinemicroscopy technique in combination with antitubulin immunofluorescence microscopy to investigate the timing of mitotic events in cells of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe having lengths at division between 7 and 60 #m. Wild-type fission yeast cells divide at a length of 14 #m. Separation of daughter nuclei (anaphase B) proceeds at a rate of 1.6 +...
متن کاملAmino-acid-induced signalling via the SPS-sensing pathway in yeast.
Yeast cells rely on the SPS-sensing pathway to respond to extracellular amino acids. This nutrient-induced signal transduction pathway regulates gene expression by controlling the activity of two redundant transcription factors: Stp1 and Stp2. These factors are synthesized as latent cytoplasmic proteins with N-terminal regulatory domains. Upon induction by extracellular amino acids, the plasma ...
متن کاملThe Vam6 and Gtr1-Gtr2 pathway activates TORC1 in response to amino acids in fission yeast.
The Rag family of GTPases has been implicated in the TORC1 activation in Drosophila and in mammalian cells in response to amino acids. We have investigated the role of the Rag GTPases Gtr1 and Gtr2 in TORC1 regulation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Fission yeast Gtr1 and Gtr2 are non-essential proteins that enhance cell growth in the presence of amino acids in the medium. The function of Gtr1 an...
متن کاملTransport Activity Dependent Regulation of the Yeast General Amino Acid Permease
The general amino acid permease Gap1p of Saccharomyces cerevisiae scavenges amino acids from the extracellular medium for use as nitrogen sources in starvation conditions. Because unlimited uptake of both naturally occurring amino acids and amino acid analogs is toxic, Gap1p is active at the plasma membrane only when amino acid levels are low. Gap1p is down regulated when amino acids are abunda...
متن کاملTransport activity–dependent intracellular sorting of the yeast general amino acid permease
Intracellular trafficking of the general amino acid permease, Gap1p, of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is regulated by amino acid abundance. When amino acids are scarce Gap1p is sorted to the plasma membrane, whereas when amino acids are abundant Gap1p is sorted from the trans-Golgi through the multivesicular endosome (MVE) and to the vacuole. Here we test the hypothesis that Gap1p itself is the sens...
