Yeast mutant defective in phosphatidylcholine synthesis.
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae opi3-3 mutant was shown to be defective in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine via methylation of phosphatidylethanolamine. The opi3-3 mutant was isolated on the basis of an inositol excretion phenotype and was not auxotrophic for choline. Inositol, but not choline, stimulated growth of the mutant. The opi3-3 mutation was recessive and was genetically linked to the...
متن کاملIsolation of a somatic-cell mutant defective in phosphatidylserine biosynthesis.
Mutant clones of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells defective in the base-exchange reaction of phospholipids with choline were isolated by using an in situ enzymatic assay for the reaction in cell colonies immobilized on polyester cloth. The specific activities of the choline-exchange reaction in extracts of one of the mutants (designated 64) grown at 33 degrees C and 40 degrees C were 13% and 6...
متن کاملRegulation of phospholipid synthesis in the yeast cki1Delta eki1Delta mutant defective in the Kennedy pathway. The Cho1-encoded phosphatidylserine synthase is regulated by mRNA stability.
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the most abundant phospholipid phosphatidylcholine is synthesized by the complementary CDP-diacylglycerol and Kennedy pathways. Using a cki1Delta eki1Delta mutant defective in choline kinase and ethanolamine kinase, we examined the consequences of a block in the Kennedy pathway on the regulation of phosphatidylcholine synthesis by the CDP-diacylglycerol pa...
متن کاملRespiratory mutant and liquid holding recovery inhibition in yeast cells
Background: Cell ability to recover from radiation damage is of great relevance in cancer treatment. It is often believed that the inhibition of cell ability to the liquid holding recovery (LHR) may be an indicator of the overall suppression of cell ability to recover from potentially lethal radiation damage. However, the literature contains no experimental evidence whether the LHR inhibition m...
متن کاملIsolation of a Chinese hamster ovary cell mutant defective in intramitochondrial transport of phosphatidylserine.
A CHO-K1 cell mutant with a specific decrease in cellular phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) level was isolated as a variant resistant to Ro09-0198, a PE-directed antibiotic peptide. The mutant was defective in the phosphatidylserine (PS) decarboxylation pathway for PE formation, in which PS produced in the endoplasmic reticulum is transported to mitochondria and then decarboxylated by an inner mito...
