Sequential mannose trimming of N-glycan (Man9GlcNAc2 -> Man8GlcNAc2 -> Man7GlcNAc2) facilitates endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation of misfolded glycoproteins (gpERAD). Our gene knockout experiments in human HCT116 cells have revealed that EDEM2 is required for the first step. However, it was previously shown that purified EDEM2 exhibited no α1,2-mannosidase activity toward Man9GlcNAc2 in vitro. Here, we found that EDEM2 was stably disulfide-bonded to TXNDC11, an endoplasmic reticulum protein containing five thioredoxin (Trx)-like domains. C558 present outside of the mannosidase homology domain of EDEM2 was linked to C692 in Trx5, which solely contains the CXXC motif in TXNDC11. This covalent bonding was essential for mannose trimming and subsequent gpERAD in HCT116 cells. Furthermore, EDEM2-TXNDC11 complex purified from transfected HCT116 cells converted Man9GlcNAc2 to Man8GlcNAc2(isomerB) in vitro. Our results establish the role of EDEM2 as an initiator of gpERAD, and represent the first clear demonstration of in vitro mannosidase activity of EDEM family proteins.

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.

Ptc1p, a type 2C protein phosphatase, is required for a late step in cortical endoplasmic reticulum (cER) inheritance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In ptc1Δ cells, ER tubules migrate from the mother cell and contact the bud tip, yet fail to spread around the bud cortex. This defect results from the failure to inactivate a bud tip–associated pool of the cell wall integrity mitogen-activated protein kinase, Slt2p. Here we report that the polarisome complex affects cER inheritance through its effects on Slt2p, with different components playing distinct roles: Spa2p and Pea2p are required for Slt2p retention at the bud tip, whereas Bni1p, Bud6p, and Sph1p affect the level of Slt2p activation. Depolymerization of actin relieves the ptc1Δ cER inheritance defect, suggesting that in this mutant the ER becomes trapped on the cytoskeleton. Loss of Sec3p also blocks ER inheritance, and, as in ptc1Δ cells, this block is accompanied by activation of Slt2p and is reversed by depolymerization of actin. Our results point to a common mechanism for the regulation of ER inheritance in which Slt2p activity at the bud tip controls the association of the ER with the actin-based cytoskeleton.

The proper distribution of sterols among organelles is critical for numerous cellular functions. How sterols are sorted and moved among membranes remains poorly understood, but they are transported not only in vesicles but also by non-vesicular pathways. One of these pathways moves exogenous sterols from the plasma membrane to the endoplasmic reticulum in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have found that two classes of proteins play critical roles in this transport, ABC transporters (ATP-binding-cassette transporters) and oxysterol-binding protein-related proteins. Transport is also regulated by phosphoinositides and the interactions of sterols with other lipids. Here, we summarize these findings and speculate on the role of non-vesicular sterol transfer in determining intracellular sterol distribution and membrane function.

ABSTRACT Polarized growth in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae depends upon the asymmetric localization and enrichment of polarity and secretion factors at the membrane prior to budding. We examined how these factors (i.e., Cdc42, Sec4, and Sro7) reach the bud site and found that their respective mRNAs localize to the tip of the incipient bud prior to nuclear division. Asymmetric mRNA localization depends upon factors that facilitate ASH1 mRNA localization (e.g., the 3′ untranslated region, She proteins 1 to 5, Puf6, actin cytoskeleton, and a physical association with She2). mRNA placement precedes protein enrichment and subsequent bud emergence, implying that mRNA localization contributes to polarization. Correspondingly, mRNAs encoding proteins which are not asymmetrically distributed (i.e., Snc1, Mso1, Tub1, Pex3, and Oxa1) are not polarized. Finally, mutations which affect cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) entry and anchoring in the bud (myo4Δ, sec3Δ, and srp101) also affect asymmetric mRNA localization. Bud-localized mRNAs, including ASH1, were found to cofractionate with ER microsomes in a She2- and Sec3-dependent manner; thus, asymmetric mRNA transport and cortical ER inheritance are connected processes in yeast.

Cortical Endoplasmic Reticulum

In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is found at the periphery of the cell and around the nucleus. The segregation of ER through the mother-bud neck may occur by more than one mechanism because perinuclear, but not peripheral ER, requires microtubules for this event. To identify genes whose products are required for cortical ER inheritance, we have used a Tn3-based transposon library to mutagenize cells expressing a green fluorescent protein-tagged ER marker protein (Hmg1p). This approach has revealed that AUX1/SWA2plays a role in ER inheritance. The COOH terminus of Aux1p/Swa2p contains a J-domain that is highly related to the J-domain of auxilin, which stimulates the uncoating of clathrin-coated vesicles. Deletion of the J-domain of Aux1p/Swa2p leads to vacuole fragmentation and membrane accumulation but does not affect the migration of peripheral ER into daughter cells. These findings suggest that Aux1p/Swa2p may be a bifunctional protein with roles in membrane traffic and cortical ER inheritance. In support of this hypothesis, we find that Aux1p/Swa2p localizes to ER membranes.

Mitotic Cells

ABSTRACT Formation of ascospores in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is driven by an unusual cell division in which daughter nuclei are encapsulated within de novo-formed plasma membranes, termed prospore membranes. Generation of viable spores requires that cytoplasmic organelles also be captured along with nuclei. In mitotic cells segregation of mitochondria into the bud requires a polarized actin cytoskeleton. In contrast, genes involved in actin-mediated transport are not essential for sporulation. Instead, efficient segregation of mitochondria into spores requires Ady3p, a component of a protein coat found at the leading edge of the prospore membrane. Other organelles whose mitotic segregation is promoted by actin, such as the vacuole and the cortical endoplasmic reticulum, are not actively segregated during sporulation but are regenerated within spores. These results reveal that organellar segregation into spores is achieved by mechanisms distinct from those in mitotic cells.
