Full textAbstract:
Expression of the yeast pyrimidine biosynthetic gene, URA3, is induced three- to fivefold in response to uracil starvation, and this regulation is mediated by the transcriptional activator PPR1 (pyrimidine pathway regulator 1). In this study, we have analyzed the regulatory elements of the URA3 promoter by DNase I footprinting, using partially purified yeast cell extracts, by deletion mutagenesis, and by 5'-end mapping of RNA transcripts. Two DNA-binding activities have been detected, and at least four distinct cis-acting regions have been identified. A region rich in poly(dA-dT) serves as an upstream promoter element necessary for the basal level of URA3 expression. A 16-base-pair sequence with dyad symmetry acts acts as a uracil-controlled upstream activating site (UASURA) and shows a specific binding only with cell extracts from strains overproducing PPR1. This in vitro binding does not require dihydroorotic acid, the physiological inducer of URA3. The TATA region appears to be composed of two functionally distinct (constitutive and regulatory) elements. Two G + A-rich regions surrounding this TATA box bind an unidentified factor called GA-binding factor. The 5' copy, GA1, is involved in PPR1 induction and overlaps the constitutive TATA region. The 3' region, GA2, is necessary for maximal expression. Neither of these GA sequences acts as a UAS in a CYC1-lacZ context. The promoters of the unlinked but coordinately regulated URA1 and URA4 genes contain highly conserved copies of the UASURA sequence, which prompted us to investigate the effects of many point mutations within this UASURA sequence on PPR1-dependent binding. In this way, we have identified the most important residues of this binding site and found that a nonsymmetrical change of these bases is sufficient to prevent the specific binding and to suppress the UASURA activity in vivo. In addition, we showed that UASURA contains a constitutive activating element which can stimulate transcription from a heterologous promoter independently of dihydroorotic acid and PPR1.

There are six enzymatic steps in the de novo biosynthesis of uridine monophosphate (UMP). In yeast, six structural genes (ura2, ura4, ura1, ura5, ura10, and ura3) and one regulatory gene (PPR1) are involved in this metabolic pathway. Gene ura2 codes for a multifunctional protein that carries the first two enzymatic activities of the pathway, i.e., carbamylphosphate synthetase (CPSase) and aspartate transcarbamylase (ATCase). Gene ura2 has been cloned and sequenced, revealing the presence of three open reading frames, one of which codes for the multifunctional protein, a polypeptide of 2212 amino acids, with a mRNA of 7 ± 0.3 kilobases. Expression of gene ura2 is regulated at the transcriptional level. As I indicate here, it could also be controlled at the posttranscriptional level since all the consensus sequences for a 1.2-kilobases intron are present in the coding sequence of the open reading frame. The deducted amino acid sequence has allowed the identification of four domains. Starting from the amino terminus of the protein, these are glutamine amido transferase, CPSase, a domain that resembles dihydroorotase (DHOase-like) but does not have DHOase activity, and ATCase. There are also two sites of interest that match known concensus phosphorylation sites; one is located in the distal part of the CPSase domain, the other in the connector region between DHOase-like and ATCase domains. The protein has been purified as a multienzyme aggregate and as a multifunctional protein. The latter form, when isolated from a protease B deficient strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, contained mostly polypeptide chains of 220 kilodaltons. Work is currently in progress to determine the site(s) of phosphorylation of this protein in vitro. ATCase activity of both wild-type and protease-deficient strains has been found to be localized in the nucleus. Channeling of carbamyl phosphate, the first intermediate in the pathway, has been demonstrated both in vitro and in permeabilized cells. The other genes of UMP biosynthesis, except for ura5, are regulated by induction of their transcription by the combined action of the product of the ppr1 gene and the inducer, dihydroorotate. Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase activity was found in the cytoplasm. Two isoenzymes of orotate phosphoribosyl transferase have been found, coded for by ura5 and ura10. The products of genes ura10 and ura3 are proposed to participate in the channeling of orotidine monophosphate. The discussion considers the problem posed by the isolation of both multienzyme complexes and multifunctional proteins resulting from the expression of the same cluster genes. I suggest that regulation by processing at the posttranscriptional and posttranslational levels could be regarded as an alternative explanation for these observations, which were previously explained in terms of proteolysis.Key words: yeast, pyrimidines, multifunctional enzyme, phosphorylation, proteolysis.

Full textAbstract:
We marked a large number of yeast telomeres within their Y' regions by transforming strains with a fragment of Y' DNA into which the URA3 gene had been inserted. A few of the Ura+ transformants obtained were very unstable and were found to contain autonomously replicating URA3-marked circular Y' elements in high copy number. These marked extrachromosomal circles were capable of reintegrating into the chromosome at other telomeric locations. In contrast, most of the Ura+ transformants obtained were quite stable mitotically and were marked at bona fide chromosomal ends. These stable transformants gave rise to mitotically unstable URA3-marked circular Y' elements at a low frequency (up to 2.5%). The likelihood that such excisions and integrations represent a natural process in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is supported by our identification of putative Y' circles in untransformed strains. The transfer of Y' information among telomeres via a circular intermediate may be important for homogenizing the sequences at the ends of yeast chromosomes and for generating the frequent telomeric rearrangements that have been observed in S. cerevisiae.

Full textAbstract:
The chromosomes of many eukaryotes have regions of high GC content interspersed with regions of low GC content. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, high-GC regions are often associated with high levels of meiotic recombination. In this study, we constructed URA3 genes that differ substantially in their base composition [URA3-AT (31% GC), URA3-WT (43% GC), and URA3-GC (63% GC)] but encode proteins with the same amino acid sequence. The strain with URA3-GC had an approximately sevenfold elevated rate of ura3 mutations compared with the strains with URA3-WT or URA3-AT. About half of these mutations were single-base substitutions and were dependent on the error-prone DNA polymerase ζ. About 30% were deletions or duplications between short (5–10 base) direct repeats resulting from DNA polymerase slippage. The URA3-GC gene also had elevated rates of meiotic and mitotic recombination relative to the URA3-AT or URA3-WT genes. Thus, base composition has a substantial effect on the basic parameters of genome stability and evolution.

Abstract The recombination-stimulating sequence, HOT1, corresponds to the promoter of transcription by yeast RNA polymerase I. The effect of HOT1 on mitotic interchromosomal recombination was examined in diploid strains carrying a heterozygous URA3 gene on chromosome III. The frequency of Ura- recombinants was increased 20-fold when HOT1 was inserted into the chromosome III copy marked with URA3, at a location 48 kbp centromere-proximal to URA3. Ura- recombinants were increased only 2-fold when HOT1 and URA3 were on opposite homologues. These results suggest that most HOT1-promoted Ura- recombinants result from gene conversion and that sequences on the HOT1-containing chromosome are preferentially converted. Characterization of Ura- recombinants isolated from strains carrying multiple markers on chromosome III indicates that HOT1-promoted gene conversion tracts are unusually long (often greater than 75 kbp) and almost always continuous. Furthermore, conversion tracts frequently extend to both sides of HOT1. We suggest that HOT1 promotes the formation of a double-strand break which is often followed by exonucleolytic digestion. Repair of the broken chromosome could then result from gap repair or from replicative repair primed only by the centromere-containing chromosomal fragment.

ABSTRACT Natural strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are prototrophic homothallic yeasts that sporulate poorly, are often heterozygous, and may be aneuploid. This genomic constitution may confer selective advantages in some environments. Different mechanisms of recombination, such as meiosis or mitotic rearrangement of chromosomes, have been proposed for wine strains. We studied the stability of the URA3 locus of a URA3/ura3 wine yeast in consecutive grape must fermentations. ura3/ura3homozygotes were detected at a rate of 1 × 10−5 to 3 × 10−5 per generation, and mitotic rearrangements for chromosomes VIII and XII appeared after 30 mitotic divisions. We used the karyotype as a meiotic marker and determined that sporulation was not involved in this process. Thus, we propose a hypothesis for the genome changes in wine yeasts during vinification. This putative mechanism involves mitotic recombination between homologous sequences and does not necessarily imply meiosis.

Abstract We report here a simple genetic system for investigating factors affecting Ty1 target-site preference within an RNAP II transcribed gene. The target in this system is a functional fusion of the regulatable MET3 promoter with the URA3 gene. We found that the simultaneous inactivation of Hir3 (a histone transcription regulator) and Cac3 (a subunit of the chromatin assembly factor I), which was previously shown by us to increase the Ty1 transposition rate, eliminated the normally observed bias for Ty1 elements to insert into the 5′ vs. 3′ regions of the MET3-URA3 and CAN1 genes. The double cac3 hir3 mutation also caused the production of a short transcript from the MET3-URA3 fusion under both repressed and derepressed conditions. In a hir3Δ single-mutant strain, the Ty1 target-site distribution into MET3-URA3 was altered only when transposition occurred while the MET3-URA3 fusion was actively transcribed. In contrast, transcription of the MET3-URA3 fusion did not alter the Ty1 target-site distribution in wild-type or other mutant strains. Deletion of RAD6 was shown to alter the Ty1 target-site preference in the MET3-URA3 fusion and the LYS2 gene. These data, together with previous studies of Ty1 integration positions at CAN1 and SUP4, indicate that the rad6 effect on Ty1 target-site selection is not gene specific.

Full textAbstract:
Une protéine prion peut adopter deux conformations distinctes, l’une cellulaire et l’autre prion. La conformation prion est le résultat de son agrégation en fibre amyloïde. Cette fibre est le support de l’information prion à partir duquel les isoformes cellulaires sont convertis en forme prion de façon autocatalytique. La transmission de l’information prion repose donc sur la transmission de cette fibre au cours des divisions cellulaires, qui est réalisée par de petits polymères. Ceux-ci sont le résultat d’un équilibre entre la fragmentation et la polymérisation de la fibre. Une perturbation de cet équilibre provoque une agrégation massive de la protéine prion, menant à la perte de l’information prion.L’objectif de ma thèse était de comprendre ce qui définit in vivo la transmission du prion. Mon modèle d’étude est la protéine Ure2p propageant le prion [URE3] dans la levure S. cerevisiae. J’ai montré que la concentration cellulaire d’Ure2p détermine la vitesse d’agrégation de la protéine prion et donc son efficacité de transmission. En effet, de trop fortes concentrations cellulaires sont incompatibles avec la propagation du prion. La concentration cellulaire d’Ure2p définit également la diversité des souches prions. Un crible génétique m’a permit de mettre en évidence que la présence de séquences centromériques surnuméraires dans la cellule interfère avec la transmission du prion [URE3]. Le même phénomène est observé avec une augmentation du niveau de ploïdie de la cellule. Dans les deux cas, la surexpression du chaperon Hsp104 restaure une propagation normale du prionA prion protein can adopt two distinct conformations, one cellular and one prion. Prion conformation is the result of its aggregation into amyloid fibers. This fiber is the support of the prion information from which the cellular isoforms are converted into prion form by autocatalytic manner. The prion information transmission is therefore based on the transmission of this fiber during cell division, which is done by small polymers. These are the result of a balance between fragmentation and polymerization of the fiber. A disturbance of this balance causes a massive aggregation of the prion protein, leading to the prion information loss.The objective of my thesis was to understand what defined in vivo the prion transmission. My studying model was the Ure2p protein propagating the [URE3] prion in S. cerevisiae yeast. I showed that the Ure2p cellular concentration determined the aggregation speed of the prion protein and thus its transmission efficiency. Indeed, too high cellular concentrations are incompatible with the prion propagation. The cellular concentration of Ure2p also defines the prion strains diversity. A genetic screen allowed me to highlight that the presence of centrometric supernumerary sequences in the cell interferes with the [URE3] prion transmission. The same phenomenon is observed with an increase in the cell ploidy. In both cases, overexpression of the Hsp104 chaperone restores normal prion propagation

Candida tropicalis 是一株具有酚類資化(phenol-utilizing)能力的不 完全酵母菌,此菌不僅能夠在17mM高濃度的酚類碳源培養基裡生長,更可用 烷類或脂肪酸誘發peroxisome和.belta.-oxidation pathway酵素大量增 加,因此無論就探討酚類代謝機制,或是增生之調節作用,開發其宿主載體 系統有其必要性。有關宿主載體系統方面,將已構築含有C.tropicalis 6.0kb URA3(orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase)標誌基因之質 體pCU1進行限制酵素圖譜分析,藉以完成次選殖工怍。最後選殖到1.4kb HindⅢ片段仍能互補C.tropicalis U-6及Saccharomyces cerevisiae SHY3兩株ura3突變株,並構築於修飾過之pGEM-7Zf載體上,命名為pCU2,完 成C.tropicalis插入型質體之系統。接著利用ExonucleaseⅢ unidirectional deletion method,及雙去氧鏈終止反應方法完成此1.4 kb HindⅢ URA3基因片段之DNA序列,共有1382bp,經電腦PC/GENE軟體之分 析,其開放閱讀架具有804個bp ,解譯268個胺基酸,預測分子量為29.7kDa 。在其 5'-非解譯區域,找到真核生物之TATA box啟動子,亦發現其有類似 E.coli-35(TTGACA)和-10(TATAAT)之啟動子區域。將 C.tropicalis URA3 基因與所解譯之ODCase(orotidine- 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase) 蛋白質和其他已發表之菌 株相比較,發現Candida菌屬之間不論是DNA或胺 基酸序列之相似性均遠高於其他菌株,所謂親水性、厭水性序列幾乎一樣, 支持分類學之定位。利用本實驗室 minicell system測定C.tropicalis URA3基因解譯ODCase蛋白質之分子量為30kDa左右,與DNA序列分析相符合 。利用C.tropicalis代謝酚類基因缺失之P-17突變株進行第二次突變,並 利用5-FOA的幫助,進行phenol-和ura3-雙重變異株之篩選,做為phenol hydroxylase基因選殖宿主。令人意外的,雖然得到三株穩定的ura3-突變 株,但phenol-卻回復突變為野生種相若。C. tropicalis複製型質體仍未 開發成功,所以利用基因拯救法策略來進行 phenol hydroxylase基因之選 殖。從以YEp-13構築之基因庫已找到8個可能帶有phenol hydroxylase基 因之質體,目前暫命名為pSL1~pSL8。需進一步實驗方可知曉是否真正選殖 到C.tropicalis phenol hydroxylase 基因o Candida tropicalis is an asporogenous phenol utilizing yeast. It can metabolize 17mM phenol and acts as a model organism for studying on peroxisome biogenesis.The host vector system may be valuable in elucidating the mechanism of phenol metabolism and the induction mechanism of peroxisome biogenesis in C. tropicalis. A plasmid named pCU1,contained a 6kb DNA fragment of C.tropicalis ,which was capable of complementing the pyrF- mutation in Echerichi coli(AT3143)and Saccharomyces cerevisiae ura3-deficient host(SHY3),had been isolated in our laboratory.C. tropicalis URA3 gene was subcloned into pGEM7Zf,along with a 2um circle capable of giving plasmids the ability to replicate autonomously in SHY3. The results of subcloning of various restriction fragments indicated that URA3 gene was located on the 1.4kb HindⅢ fragment ,and was further subcloned into pBCSK phagemid for determining the DNA sequence.Nucleotide sequence analysis predicted a possible open reading frame composed of 804bp encoded a 268 amino acids with a molecular weight 29.7kDa, whcih is in reasonable agreement with the size drived from minicell system analysis.The C.tropicalis URA3 gene has high DNA and protein homology with the ODCase(orotidine-5'- monophosphate decarboxylase)genes of budding yeasts.The compared results may disclose information on the taxonomy or the evolution of the methylotrophic yeast,C. tropicalis.The TATA box promoter was found at the position -125 upstream of the initiation codon ATG.We also found sequences similiar to the E.coli promoter consensus sequences(-35,-10) regions.We attempt to utilize gene rescue method to clone C. tropicalis phenol hydroxylase gene.We have found phenol hydroxylase- carrying candidates from the gene bank constructed by YEp13 vector.However,futher studies should be proceeded to confirm whether there is a true C.tropicalis phenol hydroxylase gene in our clones.
