“…In glucose, the tuneable inhibitor of recycling Gpa2 is transcriptionally repressed, collectively maintaining high levels of surface proteins at the plasma membrane for optimal growth (Figure 5A). Upon glucose depletion, the Mig1-dependent increase in endocytosis via yeast AP180 adaptors (Laidlaw et al, 2020), would complement decreased recycling via the Glc7-Reg1 > Mig1 > GPA2 pathway to modulate the surface proteome to suit nutritional availability, increase lysosomal / vacuolar degradation and calibrate metabolic processes for cellular survival. G-protein regulators and PI3K orthologues are evolutionarily conserved (Pierce et al, 2002;Engelman et al, 2006), and although G-protein signalling is much more complex in animal cells, Gαs has been shown to regulate endosomal trafficking and surface protein function (Colombo et al, 1992(Colombo et al, , 1994Beron et al, 1995;Zheng et al, 2004;Beas et al, 2012).…”
