Abstract
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a powerful model system that is often used to expand our understanding of cellular processes and biological functions. Although many genetically well-characterized laboratory strains of S. cerevisiae are available, they may have different genetic backgrounds which can confound data interpretation. Here, we report a comparative whole-proteome analysis of two common laboratory yeast background strains, W303 and BY4742, in both exponential and stationary growth phases using isobaric-tag-based mass spectrometry to highlight differences in proteome complexity. We quantified over 4400 proteins, hundreds of which showed differences in abundance between strains and/or growth phases. Moreover, we used proteome-wide protein abundance to profile the mating type of the strains used in the experiment, the auxotrophic markers, and associated metabolic pathways, as well as to investigate differences in particular classes of proteins, such as the pleiotropic drug resistance (PDR) proteins. This study is a valuable resource that offers insight into mechanistic differences between two common yeast background strains and can be used as a guide to select a background that is best suited for addressing a particular biological question.

Rossio V, Paulo JA. Comparison of the Proteomes and Phosphoproteomes of S. cerevisiae Cells Harvested with Different Strategies. Proteomes 2023; 11:28. [PMID: 37873870 PMCID: PMC10594529 DOI: 10.3390/proteomes11040028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023] Open
Abstract
The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a powerful model system that is widely used to investigate many cellular processes. The harvesting of yeast cells is the first step in almost every experimental procedure. Here, yeast cells are isolated from their growth medium, collected, and used for successive experiments or analysis. The two most common methods to harvest S. cerevisiae are centrifugation and filtration. Understanding if and how centrifugation and filtration affect yeast physiology is essential with respect to downstream data interpretation. Here, we profile and compare the proteomes and the phosphoproteomes, using isobaric label-based quantitative mass spectrometry, of three common methods used to harvest S. cerevisiae cells: low-speed centrifugation, high-speed centrifugation, and filtration. Our data suggest that, while the proteome was stable across the tested conditions, hundreds of phosphorylation events were different between centrifugation and filtration. Our analysis shows that, under our experimental conditions, filtration may cause both cell wall and osmotic stress at higher levels compared to centrifugation, implying harvesting-method-specific stresses. Thus, considering that the basal activation levels of specific stresses may differ under certain harvesting conditions is an important, but often overlooked, aspect of experimental design.

Abstract
CDC14, originally identified as crucial mediator of mitotic exit in budding yeast, belongs to the family of dual-specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) that are present in most eukaryotes. Contradicting data have sparked a contentious discussion whether a cell cycle role is conserved in the human paralogs CDC14A and CDC14B but possibly masked due to redundancy. Subsequent studies on CDC14A and CDC14B double knockouts in human and mouse demonstrated that CDC14 activity is dispensable for mitotic progression in higher eukaryotes and instead suggested functional specialization. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of our current understanding of how faithful cell division is linked to phosphorylation and dephosphorylation and compare functional similarities and divergences between the mitotic phosphatases CDC14, PP2A, and PP1 from yeast and higher eukaryotes. Furthermore, we review the latest discoveries on CDC14B, which identify this nuclear phosphatase as a key regulator of gene expression and reveal its role in neuronal development. Finally, we discuss CDC14B functions in meiosis and possible implications in other developmental processes.

Abstract
Reversible phospho-dephosphorylation of proteins is a major mechanism for the control of cellular functions. By large, Ser and Thr are the most frequently residues phosphorylated in eukar-yotes. Removal of phosphate from these amino acids is catalyzed by a large family of well-conserved enzymes, collectively called Ser/Thr protein phosphatases. The activity of these enzymes has an enormous impact on cellular functioning. In this work we pre-sent the members of this family in S. cerevisiae and other fungal species, and review the most recent findings concerning their regu-lation and the roles they play in the most diverse aspects of cell biology.

Abstract
Cell proliferation and cellular quiescence/G0 phase must be regulated in response to intra-/extracellular environments, and such regulation is achieved by the orchestration of protein kinases and protein phosphatases. Here, we investigated fission yeast potential orthologs (Cek1, Ppk18 and Ppk31) of the metazoan Greatwall kinase (Gwl), which inhibits type-2A protein phosphatase with B55 subunit (PP2AB55 ) by phosphorylating and activating the PP2AB55 inhibitors, α-endosulfine/ARPP-19 (Ensa/ARPP-19). Gwl and Ensa/ARPP-19 regulate mitosis; however, we found Ppk18, Cek1 and Mug134/Igo1, the counterpart of Ensa/ARPP-19, are not essential for normal mitosis but regulate nitrogen starvation (-N)-induced proper G0 entry and maintenance. Genetic and biochemical analyses indicated that the conserved Gwl site (serine 64) was phosphorylated in the G0 phase in a Ppk18-dependent manner, and the phosphorylated Mug134/Igo1 inhibited PP2AB55 in vitro. The alanine substitution of the serine 64 caused defects in G0 entry and maintenance as well as the mug134/igo1+ deletion. These results indicate that PP2AB55 activity must be regulated properly to establish the G0 phase. Consistently, simultaneous deletion of the B55 gene with mug134/igo1+ partially rescued the Mug134/Igo1 mutant phenotype. We suggest that in fission yeast, PP2AB55 regulation by the Ppk18-Mug134/Igo1 pathway is required for G0 entry and establishment of robust viability during the G0 phase.

Abstract
How cells coordinate growth and division is key for size homeostasis. Phosphorylation by G1-CDK of Whi5/Rb inhibitors of SBF/E2F transcription factors triggers irreversible S-phase entry in yeast and metazoans, but why this occurs at a given cell size is not fully understood. We show that the yeast Rim15-Igo1,2 pathway, orthologous to Gwl-Arpp19/ENSA, is up-regulated in early G1 and helps promoting START by preventing PP2ACdc55 to dephosphorylate Whi5. RIM15 overexpression lowers cell size while IGO1,2 deletion delays START in cells with low CDK activity. Deletion of WHI5, CDC55 and ectopic CLN2 expression suppress the START delay of igo1,2∆ cells. Rim15 activity increases after cells switch from fermentation to respiration, where Igo1,2 contribute to chromosome maintenance. Interestingly Cln3-Cdk1 also inhibits Rim15 activity, which enables homeostatic control of Whi5 phosphorylation and cell cycle entry. We propose that Rim15/Gwl regulation of PP2A plays a hitherto unappreciated role in cell size homeostasis during metabolic rewiring of the cell cycle. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.26233.001

TORC1 coordinates the conversion of Sic1 from a target to an inhibitor of cyclin-CDK-Cks1. Cell Discov 2017; 3:17012.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cell cycle progression through G1-S is driven by hormonal and growth-related signals that are transmitted by the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) pathway. In yeast, inactivation of TORC1 restricts G1-S transition due to the rapid clearance of G1 cyclins (Cln) and the stabilization of the B-type cyclin (Clb) cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor Sic1. The latter mechanism remains mysterious but requires the phosphorylation of Sic1-Thr173 by Mpk1 and inactivation of the Sic1-pThr173-targeting phosphatase (PP2ACdc55) through greatwall kinase-activated endosulfines. Here we show that the Sic1-pThr173 residue serves as a specific docking site for the CDK phospho-acceptor subunit Cks1 that sequesters, together with a C-terminal Clb5-binding motif in Sic1, Clb5-CDK-Cks1 complexes, thereby preventing them from flagging Sic1 for ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis. Interestingly, this functional switch of Sic1 from a target to an inhibitor of cyclin-CDK-Cks1 also operates in proliferating cells and is coordinated by the greatwall kinase, which responds to both Cln-CDK-dependent cell-cycle and TORC1-mediated nutritional cues.

Abstract
Zds1/Zds2–PP2ACdc55 forms a complex with Rho1 GTPase and specifies Rho1 signaling outcome by regulating Rho1 GAPs in budding yeast. Budding yeast Rho1 guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) plays an essential role in polarized cell growth by regulating cell wall glucan synthesis and actin organization. Upon cell wall damage, Rho1 blocks polarized cell growth and repairs the wounds by activating the cell wall integrity (CWI) Pkc1–mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. A fundamental question is how active Rho1 promotes distinct signaling outputs under different conditions. Here we identified the Zds1/Zds2–protein phosphatase 2ACdc55 (PP2ACdc55) complex as a novel Rho1 effector that regulates Rho1 signaling specificity. Zds1/Zds2–PP2ACdc55 promotes polarized growth and cell wall synthesis by inhibiting Rho1 GTPase-activating protein (GAP) Lrg1 but inhibits CWI pathway by stabilizing another Rho1 GAP, Sac7, suggesting that active Rho1 is biased toward cell growth over stress response. Conversely, upon cell wall damage, Pkc1–Mpk1 activity inhibits cortical PP2ACdc55, ensuring that Rho1 preferentially activates the CWI pathway for cell wall repair. We propose that PP2ACdc55 specifies Rho1 signaling output and that reciprocal antagonism between Rho1–PP2ACdc55 and Rho1–Pkc1 explains how only one signaling pathway is robustly activated at a time.

Abstract
The target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) pathway couples nutrient, energy and hormonal signals with eukaryotic cell growth and division. In yeast, TORC1 coordinates growth with G1–S cell cycle progression, also coined as START, by favouring the expression of G1 cyclins that activate cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CDKs) and by destabilizing the CDK inhibitor Sic1. Following TORC1 downregulation by rapamycin treatment or nutrient limitation, clearance of G1 cyclins and C-terminal phosphorylation of Sic1 by unknown protein kinases are both required for Sic1 to escape ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis prompted by its flagging via the SCFCdc4 (Skp1/Cul1/F-box protein) ubiquitin ligase complex. Here we show that the stabilizing phosphorylation event within the C-terminus of Sic1 requires stimulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase, Mpk1, and inhibition of the Cdc55 protein phosphatase 2A (PP2ACdc55) by greatwall kinase-activated endosulfines. Thus, Mpk1 and the greatwall kinase pathway serve TORC1 to coordinate the phosphorylation status of Sic1 and consequently START with nutrient availability. The target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) pathway couples nutrient availability with cell growth and division by destabilizing the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor Sic1. Here the authors show that TORC1 downregulation leads to stabilization of Sic1 via phosphorylation by the MAP kinase Mpk1 and inhibition of dephosphorylation via the greatwall kinase pathway.
