Beta Galactosidase

Three randomly derived sequences that can substitute for the signal peptide of Saccharomyces cerevisiae invertase were tested for the efficiency with which they can translocate invertase or beta-galactosidase into the endoplasmic reticulum. The rate of translocation, as measured by glycosylation, was estimated in pulse-chase experiments to be less than 6 min. When fused to beta-galactosidase, these peptides, like the normal invertase signal sequence, direct the hybrid protein to a perinuclear region, consistent with localization to the endoplasmic reticulum. The diversity of function of random peptides was studied further by immunofluorescence localization of proteins fused to 28 random sequences: 4 directed the hybrid to the endoplasmic reticulum, 3 directed it to the mitochondria, and 1 directed it to the nucleus.

Pho5 Gene

We studied ultrastructural localization of acid phosphatase in derepressed Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells transformed with a multicopy plasmid carrying either the wild-type PHO5 gene or a PHO5 gene deleted in the region overlapping the signal peptidase cleavage site. Wild-type enzyme was located in the cell wall, as was 50% of the modified protein, which carried high-mannose-sugar chains. The remaining 50% of the protein was active and core glycosylated, and it accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum cisternae. The signal peptide remained uncleaved in both forms. Cells expressing the modified protein exhibited an exaggerated endoplasmic reticulum with dilated lumen.

The product of the EUG1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a soluble endoplasmic reticulum protein with homology to both the mammalian protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and the yeast PDI homolog encoded by the essential PDI1 gene. Deletion or overexpression of EUG1 causes no growth defects under a variety of conditions. EUG1 mRNA and protein levels are dramatically increased in response to the accumulation of native or unglycosylated proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Overexpression of the EUG1 gene allows yeast cells to grow in the absence of the PDI1 gene product. Depletion of the PDI1 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae causes a soluble vacuolar glycoprotein to accumulate in its endoplasmic reticulum form, and this phenotype is only partially relieved by the overexpression of EUG1. Taken together, our results indicate that PDI1 and EUG1 encode functionally related proteins that are likely to be involved in interacting with nascent polypeptides in the yeast endoplasmic reticulum.
