Three cell wall mannoproteins facilitate the uptake of iron in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Analysis of iron-regulated gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using cDNA microarrays has identified three putative cell wall proteins that are directly regulated by Aft1p, the major iron-dependent transcription factor in yeast. FIT1, FIT2, and FIT3 (for facilitator of iron transport) were more highly expressed in strains grown in low concentrations of iron and in strains in which AFT1-...
متن کاملIdentification of three mannoproteins in the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Three glucanase-extractable cell wall proteins from Saccharomyces cerevisiae were purified, and their N-terminal amino acid sequences were determined. With this information, we were able to assign gene products to three known open reading frames (ORFs). The N-terminal sequence of a 55-kDa mannoprotein corresponded with the product of ORF YKL096w, which we named CWP1 (cell wall protein 1). A 80-...
متن کاملRsc14-controlled expression of MNN6, MNN4 and MNN1 regulates mannosylphosphorylation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall mannoproteins.
ybl006cDelta was selected using an Alcian-blue-based screen aimed to identify nonessential genes involved in the regulation of mannosylphosphorylation. When cells of this deletant were mixed with the cationic dye Alcian blue in a typical assay, they remained white, indicating a low number of mannosylphosphate groups on the cell surface. ybl006cDelta cells did not show any defect in growth rate ...
متن کاملSiderophore-Iron Uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
A family of four putative transporters (Arn1p–4p) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is expressed under conditions of iron deprivation and is regulated by Aft1p, the major iron-dependent transcription factor in yeast. One of these, Arn3p/Sit1p, facilitates the uptake of ferrioxamine B, a siderophore of the hydroxamate class. Here we report that ARN family members facilitated the uptake of iron from th...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of the Candida albicans homolog of Saccharomyces cerevisiae MNN9, required for glycosylation of cell wall mannoproteins.
The fungal cell wall has generated interest as a potential target for developing antifungal drugs, and the genes encoding glucan and chitin in fungal pathogens have been studied to this end. Mannoproteins, the third major component of the cell wall, contain mannose in either O- or N-glycosidic linkages. Here we describe the molecular analysis of the Candida albicans homolog of Saccharomyces cer...
