Mannosylphosphorylated glycans are found only in fungi, including yeast, and the elimination of mannosylphosphates from glycans is a prerequisite for yeast glyco-engineering to produce human-compatible glycoproteins. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, MNN4 and MNN6 genes are known to play roles in mannosylphosphorylation, but disruption of these genes does not completely remove the mannosylphosphates in N-glycans. This study was performed to find unknown key gene(s) involved in N-glycan mannosylphosphorylation in S. cerevisiae. For this purpose, each of one MNN4 and five MNN6 homologous genes were deleted from the och1Δmnn1Δmnn4Δmnn6Δ strain, which lacks yeast-specific hyper-mannosylation and the immunogenic α(1,3)-mannose structure. N-glycan profile analysis of cell wall mannoproteins and a secretory recombinant protein produced in mutants showed that the MNN14 gene, an MNN4 paralog with unknown function, is essential for N-glycan mannosylphosphorylation. Double disruption of MNN4 and MNN14 genes was enough to eliminate N-glycan mannosylphosphorylation. Our results suggest that the S. cerevisiae och1Δmnn1Δmnn4Δmnn14Δ strain, in which all yeast-specific N-glycan structures including mannosylphosphorylation are abolished, may have promise as a useful platform for glyco-engineering to produce therapeutic glycoproteins with human-compatible N-glycans. 相似文献

Osmotin is a plant PR-5 protein. It has a broad spectrum of antifungal activity, yet also exhibits specificity for certain fungal targets. The structural bases for this specificity remain unknown. We show here that full sensitivity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells to the PR-5 protein osmotin is dependent on the function of MNN2, MNN4 and MNN6. MNN2 is an alpha-1, 2-mannosyltransferase catalyzing the addition of the first mannose to the branches on the poly l,6-mannose backbone of the outer chain of cell wall N-linked mannans. MNN4 and MNN6 are required for the transfer of mannosylphosphate to cell wall mannans. Null mnn2, mnn4 or mnn6 mutants lack phosphomannans and are defective in binding osmotin to the fungal cell wall. Both antimannoprotein antibody and the cationic dye alcian blue protect cells against osmotin cytotoxicity. MNN1 is an alpha-1,3-mannosyltransferase that adds the terminal mannose to the outer chain branches of N-linked mannan, masking mannosylphosphate. Null mnn1 cells exhibit enhanced osmotin binding and sensitivity. Several cell wall mannoproteins can bind to immobilized osmotin, suggesting that their polysaccharide constituent determines osmotin binding. Our results demonstrating a causal relationship between cell surface phosphomannan and the susceptibility of a yeast strain to osmotin suggest that cell surface polysaccharides of invading pathogens control target specificity of plant PR-5 proteins. 相似文献

Mannosylphosphorylation of N- and O-glycans, which confers negative charges on the surfaces of cells, requires the functions of both MNN4 and MNN6 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To identify genes relevant to mannosylphosphorylation in the dimorphic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, the molecular functions of five Y. lipolytica genes showing significant sequence homology with S. cerevisiae MNN4 and MNN6 were investigated. A set of mutant strains in which Y. lipolytica MNN4 and MNN6 homologues were deleted underwent glycan structure analysis. In contrast to S. cerevisiae MNN4 (ScMNN4), the Y. lipolytica MNN4 homologue, MPO1 (YlMPO1), encodes a protein that lacks the long KKKKEEEE repeat domain at its C terminus. Moreover, just a single disruption of YlMPO1 resulted in complete disappearance of the acidic sugar moiety in both the N- and O-linked glycan profiles. In contrast, even quadruple disruption of all ScMNN6 homologues, designated YlKTR1, YlKTR2, YlKTR3, and YlKTR4, resulted in no apparent reduction in acidic sugar moieties. These findings strongly indicate that YlMpo1p performs a significant role in mannosylphosphorylation in Y. lipolytica with no involvement of the Mnn6p homologues. Mutant strains harboring the YlMPO1 gene disruption may serve as useful platforms for engineering Y. lipolytica glycosylation pathways for humanized glycans without any yeast-specific acidic modifications. 相似文献

【目的】研究高渗胁迫条件下德尔卑沙门氏菌( Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Derby, S. Derby)的转录组调控机制,分析差异表达基因(differentially expressed genes, DEGs)表达水平,探究在高渗胁迫影响下德尔卑沙门氏菌耐渗反应的相关代谢通路。【方法】通过高渗胁迫诱导德尔卑沙门氏菌的耐渗性,提取菌株的总RNA,去除rRNA,构建cDNA文库。利用转录组测序技术及生物学信息技术分析相关DEGs,并通过实时荧光定量PCR (real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, qRT-PCR)进行验证。【结果】胁迫组德尔卑沙门氏菌通过转录组测序结果发现有3 950个DEGs,其中具有显著上调的基因21个,显著下调基因38个。涉及到细胞膜蛋白、氨基酸的代谢等相关基因上调,协助德尔卑沙门氏菌在高渗环境中存活。与此同时,胁迫组德尔卑沙门氏菌的糖转运系统(sugar transport system, PTS)、糖酵解过程以及抗氧化性相关基因表达显著下调,这是由于高渗环境菌体需要在体内储存大量糖类等物质,从而降低了糖原的消耗,进而导致细胞外膜的脂多糖合成受到抑制,降低了高渗胁迫下德尔卑沙门氏菌细胞膜表面的O抗原的合成。【结论】高渗环境诱导后显著提高了德尔卑沙门氏菌的耐渗性,其中Na +/H +逆向转运蛋以及谷氨酸的代谢通路发挥着重要的作用,为进一步了解以及更好地控制其在食品中的污染提供了理论依据。 相似文献

为了揭示嫁接提高西瓜抗枯萎病的机制,该研究以嫁接西瓜为材料,采用扫描电镜观察了枯萎病菌侵染下寄主的组织结构变化,荧光定量分析了相关防卫基因的表达,比较了嫁接西瓜对枯萎病菌侵染的抗感反应。结果显示:(1)枯萎病菌侵染后,与自根西瓜相比,嫁接西瓜的根部木质部导管通过快速形成膜状物、侵填体及细胞壁增厚阻塞菌丝入侵;自根西瓜防御反应较嫁接西瓜晚,严重侵染时薄壁细胞降解,导管组织脱落导致维管系统空洞,从而使植株呈现萎蔫症状,该现象在嫁接西瓜中没有发现。(2)枯萎病菌侵染后,嫁接西瓜比自根西瓜具有较高的防卫基因表达水平,其中:嫁接西瓜中,CHI、APX和PPO基因的表达随枯萎病菌侵染时间的延长而升高,而PAL呈现先升高后降低的表达趋势,但仍高于本底表达;自根西瓜中,仅PPO基因在枯萎病菌侵染后表达上调,而其他基因的表达则是先升高后降低,与嫁接西瓜中的PAL基因表达一致。研究表明,嫁接植株一方面通过快速的组织结构响应,另一方面从转录水平提高了相关防卫基因的表达,最终使植株具有抗病性;推测防御基因在嫁接植株与枯萎病菌互作中的强烈诱导响应可能是嫁接植株抗病的分子机制之一。 相似文献
