Methanol oxidation and assimilation in Hansenula polymorpha
The metabolism of methanol was monitored in whole cells of the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha by using [13C]methanol and n.m.r. in vivo. The main products observed under normal conditions were trehalose and glycerol, whereas cells that were starved before exposure to [13C]methanol also accumulated glutamate, glutamine and alanine; formate was also more prominent in spectra from starv...
متن کاملDamaged peroxisomes are subject to rapid autophagic degradation in the yeast Hansenula polymorpha.
Evidence is accumulating that damaged components of eukaryotic cells are removed by autophagic degradation (e.g., mitophagy). Here we show that peroxisomes that are damaged by the abrupt removal of the membrane protein Pex3 are massively and rapidly degraded even when the cells are placed at peroxisome-inducing conditions and hence need the organelles for growth. Pex3 degradation was induced by...
متن کاملHansenula polymorpha Tup1p is important for peroxisome degradation.
In the yeast Hansenula polymorpha peroxisomes are selectively degraded upon a shift of cells from methanol to glucose-containing media. We identified the H. polymorpha TUP1 gene by functional complementation of the peroxisome degradation deficient mutant pdd2-4. Tup1 proteins function in transcriptional repression of specific sets of genes involved in various cellular processes. Our combined da...
متن کاملHansenula polymorpha Swi1p and Snf2p are essential for methanol utilisation.
We have cloned the Hansenula polymorpha SWI1 and SNF2 genes by functional complementation of mutants that are defective in methanol utilisation. These genes encode proteins similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Swi1p and Snf2p, which are subunits of the SWI/SNF complex. This complex belongs to the family of nucleosome-remodeling complexes that play a role in transcriptional control of gene expres...
متن کاملThe Hansenula polymorpha PDD1 gene product, essential for the selective degradation of peroxisomes, is a homologue of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Vps34p.
Via functional complementation we have isolated the Hansenula polymorpha PDD1 gene essential for selective, macroautophagic peroxisome degradation. HpPDD1 encodes a 116 kDa protein with high similarity (42% identity) to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Vps34p, which has been implicated in vacuolar protein sorting and endocytosis. Western blotting experiments revealed that HpPDD1 is expressed constituti...
