Expression of the Stp1 LMW-PTP and inhibition of protein CK2 display a cooperative effect on immunophilin Fpr3 tyrosine phosphorylation and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</Emphasis> growth

Although the yeast genome does not encode bona fide protein tyrosine kinases, tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins are numerous, suggesting that besides dual-specificity kinases, some Ser/Thr kinases are also committed to tyrosine phosphorylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here we show that blockage of the highly pleiotropic Ser/Thr kinase CK2 with a specific inhibitor synergizes with the overexpression of Stp1 low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) in inducing a severe growth-defective phenotype, consistent with a prominent role for CK2 in tyrosine phosphorylation in yeast. We also present in vivo evidence that immunophilin Fpr3, the only tyrosine-phosphorylated CK2 substrate recognized so far, interacts with and is dephosphorylated by Spt1. These data disclose a functional correlation between CK2 and LMW-PTPs, and suggest that reversible phosphorylation of Fpr3 plays a role in the regulation of growth rate and budding in S. cerevisiae.Received 15 January 2004; received after revision 20 February 2004; accepted 4 March 2004     

Conformational change of glutathione-S-transferase by its co-expression with prion domain of yeast Ure2p

Ure2 protein from Saccharomyces cerevisisae has a changeable structure similar to that ofrnammalian prion protein. Its N-terminal is the prion domain (PrD) consisting of 65 amino acids which plays a critical role in yeast prion development. In this study, PrD gene was recombinated with glutathione-S-transferase(GST) gene, and a soluble GST-PrD(sGST-PrD) fusion protein was expressed in E. coli. sGST-PrD could spontaneously polymerize into amyloid fibrils in vitro, displaying typical β-sheet-type structure; it had increased resistance to proteinase K and exhibited amvloid-like optical properties. Moreover, the aggregated GST-PrD(aGST-PrD) could induce sGST-PrD to aggregate into fibrils. These results indicate that PrD could change the conformation of GST moiety in a recombinant protein with PrD to form a prion-like chimeric protein, which proves that PrD has the ability to mediate a prion-like conversion of other proteins fused with it.

筛选与拟南芥绒毡层发育过程中重要的转录因子DYT1相互作用的调控蛋白因子

DYT1是拟南芥绒毡层发育过程中重要的转录因子.DYT1的缺失会导致绒毡层相关功能的缺陷.然而,DYT1并不是使绒毡层功能化的充分因素,暗示了DYT1蛋白需要和其他转录因子形成复合物才能发挥功能.利用酵母双杂交技术以DYT1蛋白为诱饵在拟南芥cDNA文库中筛选与DYT1相互作用的蛋白.通过筛选从文库中得到20个阳性克隆,通过BLAST序列比对得到8个候选基因序列,从中鉴定出6种候选基因编码可能的转录因子或者其他调控转录的蛋白因子.其中5个编码调控因子的基因都被证实在花药中表达.更进一步,发现另一个对花药发育所必需的转录因子AMS能与DYT1在酵母体内形成转录复合物.表明这2个蛋白可能形成异源复合物在花药中共同调节下游基因的表达.
