Abstract
The key players of calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis and Ca2+ signal generation, which are Ca2+ channels, Ca2+/H+ antiporters, and Ca2+-ATPases, are present in all fungi. Their coordinated action maintains a low Ca2+ baseline, allows a fast increase in free Ca2+ concentration upon a stimulus, and terminates this Ca2+ elevation by an exponential decrease – hence forming a Ca2+ signal. In this respect, the Ca2+ signaling machinery is conserved in different fungi. However, does the similarity of the genetic inventory that shapes the Ca2+ peak imply that if “you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all” in terms of physiological relevance? Individual studies have focused mostly on a single species, and mechanisms elucidated in few model organisms are usually extrapolated to other species. This mini-review focuses on the physiological relevance of the machinery that maintains Ca2+ homeostasis for growth, virulence, and stress responses. It reveals common and divergent functions of homologous proteins in different fungal species. In conclusion, for the physiological role of these Ca2+ transport proteins, “seen one,” in many cases, does not mean: “seen them all.”

Abstract
Yeasts are efficient cell factories and are commonly used for the production of recombinant proteins for biopharmaceutical and industrial purposes. For such products high levels of correctly folded proteins are needed, which sometimes requires improvement and engineering of the expression system. The article summarizes major breakthroughs that led to the efficient use of yeasts as production platforms and reviews bottlenecks occurring during protein production. Special focus is given to the metabolic impact of protein production. Furthermore, strategies that were shown to enhance secretion of recombinant proteins in different yeast species are presented.

Abstract
Processes taking place in the secretory organelles require Ca2+ and Mn2+, which in yeast are supplied by the Pmr1 ion pump. Here we observed that in the yeast Hansenula polymorpha Ca2+ deficiency in the secretory pathway caused by Pmr1 inactivation is exacerbated by (i) the ret1-27 mutation affecting COPI-mediated vesicular transport, (ii) inactivation of the vacuolar Ca2+ ATPase Pmc1 and (iii) inactivation of Vps35, which is a component of the retromer complex responsible for protein transport between the vacuole and secretory organelles. The ret1-27 mutation also exerted phenotypes indicating alterations in transport between the vacuole and secretory organelles. These data indicate that ret1-27, pmc1 and vps35 affect a previously unknown Pmr1-independent route of the Ca2+ delivery to the secretory pathway. We also observed that the vacuolar protein carboxypeptidase Y receives additional modifications of its glycoside chains if it escapes the Vps10-dependent sorting to the vacuole.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Recombinant protein production has developed into a huge market with enormous positive implications for human health and for the future direction of a biobased economy. Limitations in the economic and technical feasibility of production processes are often related to bottlenecks of in vivo protein folding. RECENT ADVANCES Based on cell biological knowledge, some major bottlenecks have been overcome by the overexpression of molecular chaperones and other folding related proteins, or by the deletion of deleterious pathways that may lead to misfolding, mistargeting, or degradation. CRITICAL ISSUES While important success could be achieved by this strategy, the list of reported unsuccessful cases is disappointingly long and obviously dependent on the recombinant protein to be produced. Singular engineering of protein folding steps may not lead to desired results if the pathway suffers from several limitations. In particular, the connection between folding quality control and proteolytic degradation needs further attention. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Based on recent understanding that multiple steps in the folding and secretion pathways limit productivity, synergistic combinations of the cell engineering approaches mentioned earlier need to be explored. In addition, systems biology-based whole cell analysis that also takes energy and redox metabolism into consideration will broaden the knowledge base for future rational engineering strategies.

Abstract
The various splice variants of the three SERCA- and the two SPCA-pump genes in higher vertebrates encode P-type ATPases of the P(2A) group found respectively in the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum and the secretory pathway. Of these, SERCA2b and SPCA1a represent the housekeeping isoforms. The SERCA2b form is characterized by a luminal carboxy terminus imposing a higher affinity for cytosolic Ca(2+) compared to the other SERCAs. This is mediated by intramembrane and luminal interactions of this extension with the pump. Other known affinity modulators like phospholamban and sarcolipin decrease the affinity for Ca(2+). The number of proteins reported to interact with SERCA is rapidly growing. Here, we limit the discussion to those for which the interaction site with the ATPase is specified: HAX-1, calumenin, histidine-rich Ca(2+)-binding protein, and indirectly calreticulin, calnexin, and ERp57. The role of the phylogenetically older and structurally simpler SPCAs as transporters of Ca(2+), but also of Mn(2+), is also addressed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chymosin is an important industrial enzyme widely used in cheese manufacturing. Kluyveromyces lactis is a promising host strain for expression of the chymosin gene. However, only low yields of chymosin (80 U mL(-1) in shake flask culture) have been obtained using K. lactis GG799. The aim of this study was to increase the amount of recombinant calf chymosin secreted by K. lactis GG799 by disrupting the PMR1 gene. RESULTS Kluyveromyces lactis GG799 harbouring the disrupted PMR1 gene showed reduced growth in ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid-containing and Ca(2+) -deficient medium, but Ca(2+) supplementation eliminated the growth problem. The calf chymosin gene was ligated into the K. lactis GG799 expression vector, generating the plasmid pKLAC1-N-prochymosin. The linearised plasmid was homologously integrated into the genome of K. lactis GG799. In shake flask culture, chymosin activity was 496 U mL(-1) in the K. lactis PMR1-deficient mutant, sixfold higher than that in wild-type K. lactis GG799. CONCLUSION Disrupting the PMR1 gene improved chymosin production in K. lactis GG799 sixfold. This knowledge could be applied to industrial chymosin production.

Abstract
Mechanisms for intra-Golgi transport remain a hotly debated topic. Recently, we published data illuminating a new aspect involved in intra-Golgi transport, namely a release of free cytosolic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) from the lumen of Golgi cisternae that is fundamental for the secretion and the progression of newly synthesized proteins through the Golgi apparatus (GA). This increase in [Ca(2+)](cyt) during the late stage of synchronous intra-Golgi transport stimulates the fusion of membranes containing cargo proteins and Golgi cisternae, allowing the progression of proteins through the GA. Subsequent restoration of the basal [Ca(2+)](cyt) is also important for the delivery of cargo to the proper final destination. Additionally, the secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase Ca(2+) pump (SPCA1) plays an essential role at this stage. The fine regulation of membrane fusion is also important for the formation and the maintenance of the Golgi ribbon and SPCA1, which regulates [Ca(2+)](cyt) levels, can be considered a controller of trafficking. This evidence contradicts a model of intra-Golgi transport in which permanent membrane continuity allows cargo diffusion and progression.
