The Krebs cycle is one of the major metabolic pathways in a cell, which includes both catabolic and anabolic reactions. The first enzyme of the Krebs cycle, citrate synthase, catalyzes one of a few irreversible reactions of the cycle, citrate formation from acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate. Expression of the CIT1 gene encoding the mitochondrial form of this enzyme inSaccharomyces cerevisiae is repressed on glucose- and glutamate-containing medium and activated on the raffinose-containing medium. In this work, the dependence of glucose repression of the CIT1 gene on the content of phosphate in the medium was studied. On the phosphate-deficient medium, the level of the CIT1 gene expression was increased twice. A low-molecular-weight (about 34 kDa) protein was identified and shown to interact with a region of the CIT1gene promoter (from –367 to –348 bp), which controls the glucose repression. The results obtained suggest that the Pho4 protein is involved in regulation of the CIT1gene expression on the glucose-containing and phosphate-deficient medium. Disruption of the PHO85 gene encoding phosphoprotein kinase (Pho4p is the substrate of this enzyme) leads to alleviation of glucose repression of the CIT1 gene. Thus, in yeast cells grown in the presence of glucose, the PHO85gene mediates downregulation of theCIT1expression.  相似文献

The cyclin-dependent phosphoprotein kinase Pho85p is involved in the regulation of metabolism and cell cycle in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is known that mutations in the PHO85 gene lead to constitutive synthesis of Pho5p acidic phosphatase, a delay in cell growth on media containing nonfermentable carbon sources, sensitivity to high temperature, and other phenotypic effects. A lack of growth at 37 degrees C and on a medium with alcohol as the carbon source was shown to be associated with the rapid accumulation of nuclear ts and mitochondrial [rho-] mutations occurring in the background of gene PHO85 inactivation. Thus, Pho85p seems to play an important role in the maintenance of yeast genome stability.  相似文献

Chaperones are known to play an important role in complexation of cyclin-dependent kinases with cyclins. In yeast cells growing in the presence of phosphate, cyclin-dependent kinase Pho85p and cyclin Pho80p form a complex and phosphorylate activator Pho4p. As a result, Pho4p is exported from the nucleus, and the PHO5 gene is not transcribed. The mutations suppressing the pho85 mutation were analyzed in order to identify genes which code for chaperones involved in the formation of the Pho80p-Pho85p complex in the presence of environmental phosphate. Dominant mutations DSP1, DSP2, and DSP4-6 were found. It is shown that the DSP1 gene is 2.1 cM away from the PHO85 gene on chromosome XVI and probably coincides with the EGD1 gene coding for a chaperone.  相似文献

Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has five cyclin-dependent protein kinases (Cdks), Cdc28, Srb10, Kin28, Ctk1, and Pho85. Any of these Cdks requires a cyclin partner for its kinase activity and a Cdk/cyclin complex, thus produced, phosphorylates a set of specific substrate proteins to exert its function. The cyclin partners of Srb10, Kin28, and Ctk1 are Srb11, Ccl1, and Ctk2, respectively. In contrast to the fact that each of Srb10, Kin28, and Ctk1 has a single cyclin partner, Cdc28 and Pho85 are polygamous; Cdc28 has 9 cyclins and Pho85 has 10 cyclins. Among these Cdks, Kin28 and Cdc28 are essential Cdks and it is well known that Cdc28 kinase plays a major role in regulating cell cycle progression. Pho85 is a non-essential Cdk but its absence causes a broad spectrum of phenotypes such as constitutive expression of PHO5, inability to utilize non-fermentable carbon sources, defects in cell cycle progression, and so on. Pho85 homologues are expanding to higher eukaryotes. Pho85 is most closely related with Cdk5 in terms of the amino acid sequence. The functional analysis of the domains of Pho85 also supports the close relationship between Pho85 and Cdk5, in which it was shown that the method of regulation of these two kinases is similar. Furthermore, forced expression of the mammalian CDK5 gene in a pho85Delta strain canceled a part of the pho85 defects. In this review, we summarize the functions of both Pho85/cyclin kinase and emphasize yeast Pho85 as valuable model systems to elucidate the functions of their homologues in other organisms.  相似文献
