Laquel P, Testet E, Tuphile K, Cullin C, Fouillen L, Bessoule JJ, Doignon F. Phosphoinositides containing stearic acid are required for interaction between Rho GTPases and the exocyst to control the late steps of polarised exocytosis. Traffic 2021; 23:120-136. [PMID: 34908215 DOI: 10.1111/tra.12829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 12/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Cell polarity is achieved by regulators such as small G proteins, exocyst members and phosphoinositides, with the latter playing a key role when bound to the exocyst proteins Sec3p and Exo70p, and Rho GTPases. This ensures asymmetric growth via the routing of proteins and lipids to the cell surface using actin cables. Previously, using a yeast mutant for a lysophosphatidylinositol acyl transferase encoded by the PSI1 gene, we demonstrated the role of stearic acid in the acyl chain of phosphoinositides in cytoskeletal organisation and secretion. Here, we use a genetic approach to characterise the effect on late steps of the secretory pathway. The constitutive overexpression of PSI1 in mutants affecting kinases involved in the phosphoinositide pathway demonstrated the role of molecular species containing stearic acid in bypassing a lack of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate PI(4)P at the plasma membrane, which is essential for the function of the Cdc42p module. Decreasing the levels of stearic acid-containing phosphoinositides modifies the environment of the actors involved in the control of late steps in the secretory pathway. This leads to decreased interactions between Exo70p and Sec3p, with Cdc42p, Rho1p and Rho3p, due to disruption of the GTP/GDP ratio of at least Rho1p and Rho3p GTPases, thereby preventing activation of the exocyst.

Nomura W, Futamata R, Inoue Y. Role of RhoGAP Rgd1 in Pkc1 signaling-related actin repolarization under heat shock stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2021; 1865:129853. [PMID: 33508381 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2021.129853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2020] [Revised: 01/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A serine/threonine kinase Pkc1 is the sole protein kinase C in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and plays an important role in the regulation of polarized growth and stress responses such as those due to heat shock. Exposure of cells to high temperature transiently arrests polarized growth and leads to depolarization of the actin cytoskeleton, followed by actin repolarization during adaptation to heat shock stress. Actin repolarization is ensured by the activation of Pkc1 signaling; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. METHODS Using an overexpression construct of a constitutively active mutant of Pkc1 (Pkc1R398P), we explored the Pkc1 target molecules involved in actin repolarization. RESULTS PKC1R398P overexpression as well as heat shock stress increased the phosphorylation levels of Rho GTPase-activating protein (RhoGAP) Rgd1. Rgd1 was found to contribute to Pkc1-signaling-related actin repolarization during adaptation to heat shock stress in a GAP activity-independent manner, with Ser148 in Rgd1 playing a crucial role. Furthermore, Rgd1 was involved in the maintenance of phosphorylation status of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase Mpk1, a downstream effector of Pkc1, under heat shock stress. CONCLUSIONS Rgd1 is a target of Pkc1 signaling under conditions of heat shock stress, and required for the normal process of actin repolarization during adaptation to heat shock stress. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Our results provide insights into the molecular mechanism underlying Pkc1-mediated modulation of actin repolarization under heat shock stress.

Abstract
Invasive fungal infections caused by the pathogen Candida albicans have transitioned from a rare curiosity to a major cause of human mortality. This is in part due to the emergence of resistance to the limited number of antifungals available to treat fungal infections. Azoles function by targeting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a key component of the fungal cell membrane. Loss-of-function mutations in the ergosterol biosynthetic gene ERG3 mitigate azole toxicity and enable resistance that depends upon fungal stress responses. Here, we performed a genome-wide synthetic genetic array screen in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to map ERG3 genetic interactors and uncover novel circuitry important for azole resistance. We identified nine genes that enabled erg3-mediated azole resistance in the model yeast and found that only two of these genes had a conserved impact on resistance in C. albicans. Further, we screened a C. albicans homozygous deletion mutant library and identified 13 genes for which deletion enhances azole susceptibility. Two of the genes, RGD1 and PEP8, were also important for azole resistance acquired by diverse mechanisms. We discovered that loss of function of retrograde transport protein Pep8 overwhelms the functional capacity of the stress response regulator calcineurin, thereby abrogating azole resistance. To identify the mechanism through which the GTPase activator protein Rgd1 enables azole resistance, we selected for mutations that restore resistance in strains lacking Rgd1. Whole genome sequencing uncovered parallel adaptive mechanisms involving amplification of both chromosome 7 and a large segment of chromosome 3. Overexpression of a transporter gene on the right portion of chromosome 3, NPR2, was sufficient to enable azole resistance in the absence of Rgd1. Thus, we establish a novel mechanism of adaptation to drug-induced stress, define genetic circuitry underpinning azole resistance, and illustrate divergence in resistance circuitry over evolutionary time. Fungal infections caused by the pathogen Candida albicans pose a serious threat to human health. Treating these infections relies heavily on the azole antifungals, however, resistance to these drugs develops readily demanding novel therapeutic strategies. We performed large-scale systematic screens in both C. albicans and the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to identify genes that enable azole resistance. Our genome-wide screen in S. cerevisiae identified nine determinants of azole resistance, only two of which were important for resistance in C. albicans. Our screen of C. albicans mutants identified 13 genes for which deletion enhances susceptibility to azoles, including RGD1 and PEP8. We found that loss of Pep8 overwhelms the functional capacity of a key stress response regulator, calcineurin. In contrast, amplification of chromosome 7 and the right portion of chromosome 3 can restore resistance in strains lacking Rgd1, suggesting that Rgd1 may enable azole resistance by inducing genes in these amplified regions. Specifically, overexpression of a gene involved in transport on chromosome 3, NPR2, was sufficient to restore azole resistance in the absence of Rgd1. Thus, we establish novel circuitry important for antifungal drug resistance, and uncover adaptive mechanisms involving genomic plasticity that occur in response to drug induced stress.

Abstract
The protein Rgd1 is involved in the regulation of cytoskeleton formation and in signalling pathways that control cell polarity and growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Rgd1p is composed of a F-BAR domain required for membrane binding and a RhoGAP domain responsible for activating Rho3p and Rho4p, two GTPases respectively involved in bud growth and cytokinesis. Rgd1p is recruited to the membrane through interactions with phosphoinositide lipids, which bind the two isolated domains and stimulate the RhoGAP activity on Rho4p. As previously shown by crystallography, the membrane-binding F-BAR domain contains a conserved inositol phosphate binding site, which explains the preferential binding of phosphoinositides. In contrast, RhoGAP domains are not expected to bind lipids. In order to unravel this puzzling feature, we solved the three-dimensional structure of the isolated protein and found a cryptic phosphoinositide binding site involving non conserved residues (Martinez et al. 2017). The assignment of the resonances and secondary structure of Rgd1-RhoGAP (aa 450-666) is presented here.

Structural evidence of a phosphoinositide-binding site in the Rgd1-RhoGAP domain. Biochem J 2017; 474:3307-3319.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide lipids recruit proteins to the plasma membrane involved in the regulation of cytoskeleton organization and in signalling pathways that control cell polarity and growth. Among those, Rgd1p is a yeast GTPase-activating protein (GAP) specific for Rho3p and Rho4p GTPases, which control actin polymerization and stress signalling pathways. Phosphoinositides not only bind Rgd1p, but also stimulate its GAP activity on the membrane-anchored form of Rho4p. Both F-BAR (F-BAR FCH, and BAR) and RhoGAP domains of Rgd1p are involved in lipid interactions. In the Rgd1p–F-BAR domain, a phosphoinositide-binding site has been recently characterized. We report here the X-ray structure of the Rgd1p–RhoGAP domain, identify by NMR spectroscopy and confirm by docking simulations, a new but cryptic phosphoinositide-binding site, comprising contiguous A1, A1′ and B helices. The addition of helix A1′, unusual among RhoGAP domains, seems to be crucial for lipid interactions. Such a site was totally unexpected inside a RhoGAP domain, as it was not predicted from either the protein sequence or its three-dimensional structure. Phosphoinositide-binding sites in RhoGAP domains have been reported to correspond to polybasic regions, which are located at the unstructured flexible termini of proteins. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy experiments confirm the membrane interaction of the Rgd1p–RhoGAP domain upon the addition of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and indicate a slight membrane destabilization in the presence of the two partners.

Abstract
The bidirectional transport between the Golgi complex and the endocytic pathway has to be finely regulated in order to ensure the proper delivery of newly synthetized lysosomal enzymes and the return of sorting receptors from degradative compartments. The high complexity of these routes has led to experimental difficulties in properly dissecting and separating the different pathways. As a consequence, several models have been proposed during the past decades. However, recent advances in our understanding of endosomal dynamics have helped to unify these different views. We provide here an overview of the current insights into the transport routes between Golgi and endosomes in mammalian cells. The focus of the Commentary is on the key molecules involved in the trafficking pathways between these intracellular compartments, such as Rab proteins and sorting receptors, and their regulation. A proper understanding of the bidirectional traffic between the Golgi complex and the endolysosomal system is of uttermost importance, as several studies have demonstrated that mutations in the factors involved in these transport pathways result in various pathologies, in particular lysosome-associated diseases and diverse neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
p190RhoGAP (p190A) is a negative regulator of RhoA and localizes to membrane protrusions, where its GAP activity is required for directional migration. Here, Binamé et al. identify the protrusion-localization sequence in p190A and show that cancer-associated mutations in this region affect p190A localization and function as well as tumor cell migration. Spatiotemporal regulation of RhoGTPases such as RhoA is required at the cell leading edge to achieve cell migration. p190RhoGAP (p190A) is the main negative regulator of RhoA and localizes to membrane protrusions, where its GTPase-activating protein (GAP) activity is required for directional migration. In this study, we investigated the molecular processes responsible for p190A targeting to actin protrusions. By analyzing the subcellular localization of truncated versions of p190A in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, we identified a novel functional p190A domain: the protrusion localization sequence (PLS) necessary and sufficient for p190A targeting to leading edges. Interestingly, the PLS is also required for the negative regulation of p190A RhoGAP activity. Further, we show that the F-actin binding protein cortactin binds the PLS and is required for p190A targeting to protrusions. Lastly, we demonstrate that cancer-associated mutations in PLS affect p190A localization and function, as well as tumor cell migration. Altogether, our data unveil a new mechanism of regulation of p190A in migrating tumor cells.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIPs) are present in very small amounts but are essential for cell signaling, morphogenesis, and polarity. By mass spectrometry, we demonstrated that some PIPs with stearic acyl chains were strongly disturbed in a psi1Δ Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strain deficient in the specific incorporation of a stearoyl chain at the sn-1 position of phosphatidylinositol. The absence of PIPs containing stearic acid induced disturbances in intracellular trafficking, although the total amount of PIPs was not diminished. Changes in PIPs also induced alterations in the budding pattern and defects in actin cytoskeleton organization (cables and patches). Moreover, when the PSI1 gene was impaired, a high proportion of cells with bipolar cortical actin patches that occurred concomitantly with the bipolar localization of Cdc42p was specifically found among diploid cells. This bipolar cortical actin phenotype, never previously described, was also detected in a bud9Δ/bud9Δ strain. Very interestingly, overexpression of PSI1 reversed this phenotype.

Abstract
The SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) proteins are critical for the function of the secretory pathway. The SNARE Memb11 is involved in membrane trafficking at the ER-Golgi interface. The aim of the work was to decipher molecular mechanisms acting in Memb11-mediated ER-Golgi traffic. In mammalian cells, the orthologue of Memb11 (membrin) is potentially involved in the recruitment of the GTPase Arf1 at the Golgi membrane. However molecular mechanisms associated to Memb11 remain unknown in plants. Memb11 was detected mainly at the cis-Golgi and co-immunoprecipitated with Arf1, suggesting that Arf1 may interact with Memb11. This interaction of Memb11 with Arf1 at the Golgi was confirmed by in vivo BiFC (Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation) experiments. This interaction was found to be specific to Memb11 as compared to either Memb12 or Sec22. Using a structural bioinformatic approach, several sequences in the N-ter part of Memb11 were hypothesized to be critical for this interaction and were tested by BiFC on corresponding mutants. Finally, by using both in vitro and in vivo approaches, we determined that only the GDP-bound form of Arf1 interacts with Memb11. Together, our results indicate that Memb11 interacts with the GDP-bound form of Arf1 in the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
In budding yeast, Rga1 negatively regulates the Rho GTPase Cdc42 by acting as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for Cdc42. To gain insight into the function and regulation of Rga1, we overexpressed Rga1 and an N-terminally truncated Rga1-C538 (a.a. 538-1007) segment. Overexpression of Rga1-C538 but not full-length Rga1 severely impaired growth and cell morphology in wild-type cells. We show that Rga1 is phosphorylated during the cell cycle. The lack of phenotype for full-length Rga1 upon overexpression may result from a negative regulation by G1-specific Pho85, a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK). From a high-copy suppressor screen, we isolated RHO3, SEC9, SEC1, SSO1, SSO2, and SRO7, genes involved in exocytosis, as suppressors of the growth defect caused by Rga1-C538 overexpression. Moreover, we detected that Rga1 interacts with Rho3 in two-hybrid and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) assays. Rga1 preferentially interacts with the GTP-bound form of Rho3 and the interaction requires the GAP domain and additional sequence upstream of the GAP domain. Our data suggest that the interaction of Rga1 with Rho3 may regulate Rho3’s function in polarized bud growth.

Comparison of Saccharomyces cerevisiae F-BAR domain structures reveals a conserved inositol phosphate binding site. Structure 2015; 23:352-63.

Abstract
F-BAR domains control membrane interactions in endocytosis, cytokinesis, and cell signaling. Although they are generally thought to bind curved membranes containing negatively charged phospholipids, numerous functional studies argue that differences in lipid-binding selectivities of F-BAR domains are functionally important. Here, we compare membrane-binding properties of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae F-BAR domains in vitro and in vivo. Whereas some F-BAR domains (such as Bzz1p and Hof1p F-BARs) bind equally well to all phospholipids, the F-BAR domain from the RhoGAP Rgd1p preferentially binds phosphoinositides. We determined X-ray crystal structures of F-BAR domains from Hof1p and Rgd1p, the latter bound to an inositol phosphate. The structures explain phospholipid-binding selectivity differences and reveal an F-BAR phosphoinositide binding site that is fully conserved in a mammalian RhoGAP called Gmip and is partly retained in certain other F-BAR domains. Our findings reveal previously unappreciated determinants of F-BAR domain lipid-binding specificity and provide a basis for its prediction from sequence.

Abstract
F-BAR domain proteins act as linkers between the cell cortex and cytoskeleton, and are involved in membrane binding and bending. Rga7 is one of the seven F-BAR proteins present in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. In addition to the F-BAR domain in the N-terminal region, Rga7 possesses a Rho GTPase-activating protein (GAP) domain at its C-terminus. We show here that Rga7 is necessary to prevent fragmentation of the contracting ring and incorrect septum synthesis. Accordingly, cultures of cells lacking Rga7 contain a higher percentage of dividing cells and more frequent asymmetric or aberrant septa, which ultimately might cause cell death. The Rga7 F-BAR domain is necessary for the protein localization to the division site and to the cell tips, and also for the Rga7 roles in cytokinesis. In contrast, Rga7 GAP catalytic activity seems to be dispensable. Moreover, we demonstrate that Rga7 cooperates with the two F-BAR proteins Cdc15 and Imp2 to ensure proper cytokinesis. We have also detected association of Rga7 with Imp2, and its binding partners Fic1 and Pxl1. Taken together, our findings suggest that Rga7 forms part of a protein complex that coordinates the late stages of cytokinesis.

Abstract
In yeast and animal cytokinesis, the small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Rho1/RhoA has an established role in formation of the contractile actomyosin ring, but its role, if any, during cleavage-furrow ingression and abscission is poorly understood. Through genetic screens in yeast, we found that either activation of Rho1 or inactivation of another small GTPase, Cdc42, promoted secondary septum (SS) formation, which appeared to be responsible for abscission. Consistent with this hypothesis, a dominant-negative Rho1 inhibited SS formation but not cleavage-furrow ingression or the concomitant actomyosin ring constriction. Moreover, Rho1 is temporarily inactivated during cleavage-furrow ingression; this inactivation requires the protein Cyk3, which binds Rho1-guanosine diphosphate via its catalytically inactive transglutaminase-like domain. Thus, unlike the active transglutaminases that activate RhoA, the multidomain protein Cyk3 appears to inhibit activation of Rho1 (and thus SS formation), while simultaneously promoting cleavage-furrow ingression through primary septum formation. This work suggests a general role for the catalytically inactive transglutaminases of fungi and animals, some of which have previously been implicated in cytokinesis.

Abstract
Polarized growth of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae depends on different biological processes and requires several signaling pathways. Signaling is mediated through a set of proteins, which include Rho3p and Rho4p GTPases. Although these two proteins are involved in the control of distinct aspects of polarized growth in yeast, they have a common regulator: the Rgd1 RhoGAP protein. Here we demonstrate that Rgd1p is phosphorylated by the Aurora B like kinase Ipl1 and we observe that loss of Ipl1 function leads to a new Rgd1p distribution in a small part of the cell population.

Abstract
Fluorescent liposomal nanovesicles (liposomes) are commonly used for lipid research and/or signal enhancement. However, the problem of self-quenching with conventional fluorescent liposomes limits their applications because these liposomes must be lysed to detect the fluorescent signals. Here, we developed a nonquenched fluorescent (NQF)1 liposome by optimizing the proportion of sulforhodamine B (SRB) encapsulant and lissamine rhodamine B-dipalmitoyl phosphatidylethanol (LRB-DPPE) on a liposomal surface for signal amplification. Our study showed that 0.3% of LRB-DPPE with 200 μm of SRB provided the maximal fluorescent signal without the need to lyse the liposomes. We also observed that the NQF liposomes largely eliminated self-quenching effects and produced greatly enhanced signals than SRB-only liposomes by 5.3-fold. To show their application in proteomics research, we constructed NQF liposomes that contained phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P2) and profiled its protein interactome using a yeast proteome microarray. Our profiling led to the identification of 162 PI(3,5)P2-specific binding proteins (PI(3,5)P2-BPs). We not only recovered many proteins that possessed known PI(3,5)P2-binding domains, but we also found two unknown Pfam domains (Pfam-B_8509 and Pfam-B_10446) that were enriched in our dataset. The validation of many newly discovered PI(3,5)P2-BPs was performed using a bead-based affinity assay. Further bioinformatics analyses revealed that the functional roles of 22 PI(3,5)P2-BPs were similar to those associated with PI(3,5)P2, including vesicle-mediated transport, GTPase, cytoskeleton, and kinase. Among the 162 PI(3,5)P2-BPs, we found a novel motif, HRDIKP[ES]NJLL that showed statistical significance. A docking simulation showed that PI(3,5)P2 interacted primarily with lysine or arginine side chains of the newly identified PI(3,5)P2-binding kinases. Our study showed that this new tool would greatly benefit profiling lipid-protein interactions in high-throughput studies.

Abstract
Establishment and maintenance of cell polarity in eukaryotes depends upon the regulation of Rho GTPases. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Rho GTPase activating protein (RhoGAP) Rgd1p stimulates the GTPase activities of Rho3p and Rho4p, which are involved in bud growth and cytokinesis, respectively. Consistent with the distribution of Rho3p and Rho4p, Rgd1p is found mostly in areas of polarized growth during cell cycle progression. Rgd1p was mislocalized in mutants specifically altered for Golgi apparatus-based phosphatidylinositol 4-P [PtdIns(4)P] synthesis and for PtdIns(4,5)P(2) production at the plasma membrane. Analysis of Rgd1p distribution in different membrane-trafficking mutants suggested that Rgd1p was delivered to growth sites via the secretory pathway. Rgd1p may associate with post-Golgi vesicles by binding to PtdIns(4)P and then be transported by secretory vesicles to the plasma membrane. In agreement, we show that Rgd1p coimmunoprecipitated and localized with markers specific to secretory vesicles and cofractionated with a plasma membrane marker. Moreover, in vivo imaging revealed that Rgd1p was transported in an anterograde manner from the mother cell to the daughter cell in a vectoral manner. Our data indicate that secretory vesicles are involved in the delivery of RhoGAP Rgd1p to the bud tip and bud neck.

Abstract
Septins are essential for membrane compartmentalization and remodeling. Electron tomography of yeast bud necks shows filaments perpendicular and parallel to the mother-bud axis that resemble in vitro septin arrays. Filaments are still present, although disordered, in mutants lacking a single septin, underscoring the importance of septin assembly. Septins are conserved GTP-binding proteins involved in membrane compartmentalization and remodeling. In budding yeast, five mitotic septins localize at the bud neck, where the plasma membrane is enriched in phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns4,5P2). We previously established the subunit organization within purified yeast septin complexes and how these hetero-octamers polymerize into filaments in solution and on PtdIns4,5P2-containing lipid monolayers. How septin ultrastructure in vitro relates to the septin-containing filaments observed at the neck in fixed cells by thin-section electron microscopy was unclear. A morphological description of these filaments in the crowded space of the cell is challenging, given their small cross section. To examine septin organization in situ, sections of dividing yeast cells were analyzed by electron tomography of freeze-substituted cells, as well as by cryo–electron tomography. We found networks of filaments both perpendicular and parallel to the mother–bud axis that resemble septin arrays on lipid monolayers, displaying a repeat pattern that mirrors the molecular dimensions of the corresponding septin preparations in vitro. Thus these in situ structures most likely represent septin filaments. In viable mutants lacking a single septin, in situ filaments are still present, although more disordered, consistent with other evidence that the in vivo function of septins requires filament formation.

Abstract
The Rab GTPase-activating proteins (GAP) Gyp5p and Gyl1p are involved in the control of polarized exocytosis at the small-bud stage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Both Gyp5p and Gyl1p interact with the N-Bin1/Amphiphysin/Rvs167 (BAR) domain protein Rvs167p, but the biological function of this interaction is unclear. We show here that Gyp5p and Gyl1p recruit Rvs167p to the small-bud tip, where it plays a role in polarized exocytosis. In gyp5Δgyl1Δ cells, Rvs167p is not correctly localized to the small-bud tip. Both P473L mutation in the SH3 domain of Rvs167p and deletion of the proline-rich regions of Gyp5p and Gyl1p disrupt the interaction of Rvs167p with Gyp5p and Gyl1p and impair the localization of Rvs167p to the tips of small buds. We provide evidence for the accumulation of secretory vesicles in small buds of rvs167Δ cells and for defective Bgl2p secretion in rvs167Δ cultures enriched in small-budded cells at 13°C, implicating Rvs167p in polarized exocytosis. Moreover, both the accumulation of secretory vesicles in Rvs167p P473L cells cultured at 13°C and secretion defects in cells producing Gyp5p and Gyl1p without proline-rich regions strongly suggest that the function of Rvs167p in exocytosis depends on its ability to interact with Gyp5p and Gyl1p.

Abstract
The Rho GTPase-activating protein Rgd1p positively regulates the GTPase activity of Rho3p and Rho4p, which are involved in bud growth and cytokinesis, respectively, in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two-hybrid screening identified Tos2p as a candidate Rgd1p-binding protein. Further analyses confirmed that Tos2p binds to the RhoGAP Rgd1p through its C-terminal region. Both Tos2p and Rgd1p are localized to polarized growth sites during the cell cycle and associated with detergent-resistant membranes. We observed that TOS2 overexpression suppressed rgd1Δ sensitivity to a low pH. In the tos2Δ strain, the amount of GTP-bound Rho3p was increased, suggesting an influence of Tos2p on Rgd1p activity in vivo. We also showed a functional interaction between the TOS2 and the RHO3 genes: TOS2 overexpression partially suppressed the growth defect of rho3-V51 cells at a restrictive temperature. We propose that Tos2p, a protein involved in polarized growth and most probably associated with the plasma membrane, modulates the action of Rgd1p and Rho3p in S. cerevisiae.

Abstract
Protein domain architecture can be used to construct supramolecular structures, to carry out specific functions and to mediate signaling in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The Rgd1p protein of budding yeast contains two domains with different functions in the cell: the F-BAR and RhoGAP domains. The F-BAR domain has been shown to interact with membrane phospholipids and is thought to induce or sense membrane curvature. The RhoGAP domain activates the GTP hydrolysis of two Rho GTPases, thereby regulating different cellular pathways. Specific molecular interactions with the F-BAR and RhoGAP domains, cell signaling and interplay between these domains may allow the Rgd1p protein to act in several different biological processes, all of which are required for polarized growth in yeast.
