Homologs of the yeast Sec complex subunits Sec62p and Sec63p are abundant proteins in dog pancreas microsomes.

ABSTRACT: Cotranslational protein transport into dog pancreas microsomes involves the Sec61p complex plus a luminal heat shock protein 70. Posttranslational protein transport into the yeast endoplasmic reticulum (ER) involves the so-called Sec complex in the membrane, comprising a similar Sec61p subcomplex, the putative signal peptide receptor subcomplex, and the heat shock protein 40-type subunit, Sec63p, plus a luminal heat shock protein 70. Recently, human homologs of yeast proteins Sec62p and Sec63p were discovered. Here we determined the concentrations of these two membrane proteins in dog pancreas microsomes and observed that the canine homologs of yeast proteins Sec62p and Sec63p are abundant proteins, present in almost equimolar concentrations as compared with Sec61alphap monomers. Furthermore, we detected fractions of these two proteins in association with each other as well as with the Sec61p complex. The J domain of the human Sec63p was shown to interact with immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein. Thus, the membrane of the mammalian ER contains components, known from the posttranslationally operating protein translocase in yeast. We suggest that these components are required for efficient cotranslational protein transport into the mammalian ER as well as for other transport processes.

Project description:Yeast filamentous growth is a stress response to conditions of nitrogen deprivation, wherein yeast colonies form pseudohyphal filaments of elongated and connected cells. As proteins mediating adhesion and transport are required for this growth transition, we expect that the protein complement at the yeast cell periphery plays a critical and tightly regulated role in pseudohyphal filamentation. To identify proteins differentially abundant at the yeast cell periphery during pseudohyphal growth, we generated quantitative proteomic profiles of plasma membrane protein preparations under conditions of vegetative growth and filamentation. By isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification chemistry and two-dimensional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, we profiled 2463 peptides and 356 proteins, identifying 11 differentially abundant proteins that localize to the yeast cell periphery. This protein set includes Ylr414cp, herein renamed Pun1p, a previously uncharacterized protein localized to the plasma membrane compartment of Can1. Pun1p abundance is doubled under conditions of nitrogen stress, and deletion of PUN1 abolishes filamentous growth in haploids and diploids; pun1Delta mutants are noninvasive, lack surface-spread filamentation, grow slowly, and exhibit impaired cell adhesion. Conversely, overexpression of PUN1 results in exaggerated cell elongation under conditions of nitrogen stress. PUN1 contributes to yeast nitrogen signaling, as pun1Delta mutants misregulate amino acid biosynthetic genes during nitrogen stress. By chromatin immunoprecipitation and reverse transcription-PCR, we find that the filamentous growth factor Mss11p directly binds the PUN1 promoter and regulates its transcription. In total, this study provides the first profile of differential protein abundance during pseudohyphal growth, identifying a previously uncharacterized membrane compartment of Can1 protein required for wild-type nitrogen signaling and filamentous growth.
