A novel phosphate-starvation response in fission yeast requires the endocytic function of Myosin I (ChIP-seq)


ABSTRACT: S. pombe Myosin I (MyoI) plays a key role in cytoskeletal functions, in particular it is part of the endocytotic machinery. Here we show a novel role for MyoI in regulating the response to low phosphate stress. Deletion of MyoI led to an increased proliferation in low phosphate media when compared to a control strain; mutations in other proteins involved in the early steps of endocytosis, such as ARP2 and Sla2/END4, led to the same phenotype. We show that once cells are deprived of phosphate they undergo clear morphological changes, slow down growth but retain viability. This is reminiscent of a quiescence response, and it is completely abolished when MyoI is absent. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a wide perturbation of gene expression upon phosphate starvation, with rapid induction of stress-regulated genes. However, Æmyo1 cells displayed little or negligible effects at gene expression level when they were phosphate-starved. Using a combination of super resolution microscopy and genetic approaches we pinpointed the specific function of MyoI in endocytosis as critical for the response to low phosphate stress. Furthermore, introduction of point-mutated MyoI (with ablated endocytic function) into a ÆmyoI background failed to restore phosphate stress response. Taken together, our data indicate how endocytosis, and in particular MyoI, play a pivotal role in mediating cellular response to nutrients, bridging the external environment and internal molecular functions of the cells.

Endocytosis is essential for uptake of many substances into the cell, but how it links to nutritional signalling is poorly understood. Here, we show a new role for endocytosis in regulating the response to low phosphate in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Loss of function of myosin I (Myo1), Sla2/End4 or Arp2, proteins involved in the early steps of endocytosis, led to increased proliferation in low-phosphate medium compared to controls. We show that once cells are deprived of phosphate they undergo a  ...[more]
