Protein Phosphatase 2B of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae is Required for Tolerance to Manganese, in Blocking the Entry of ions into the Cells

Abstract: The role of protein phosphatase 2B (PP2B/calcineurin) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the tolerance to divalent cations was investigated. PP2B-deficient mutants were found to be sensitive to MnCl2, but not to ZnCl2, CuCl2, NiCl2 and CoCl2. By measuring both manganese uptake and its efflux, it was found that the sensitivity of the mutant cells was due to an increase in manganese uptake and that the wild-type cells were able to prevent manganese entry into the cells, rather than export it in a more efficient mann… Show more

“…It is unlikely that ShMTP1 complements the functions defective in the cnb1 mutant, because wild-type CNB1 is a protein phosphatase and not a membrane-bound protein (Farcasanu et al, 1995). Therefore, it is more likely that ShMTP1 acts independently of CNB1 to confer Mn 2ϩ tolerance by some other mechanism.…”

“…The cnb1 mutant is defective in Ca homeostasis as a result of inactive calcineurin, and its sensitivity to Mn 2ϩ is thought to be the result of CNB1 also being involved in Mn 2ϩ homeostasis (Farcasanu et al, 1995). The increased sensitivity of pmr1 mutants to Mn 2ϩ has been attributed to the absence of the Ca 2ϩ /Mn 2ϩ -ATPase activity located at the Golgi complex, which normally acts to reduce cytosolic Mn 2ϩ concentrations, with subsequent export of Mn 2ϩ to the external medium by exocytosis (Lapinskas et al, 1995).…”

“…Calcineurin mutants deficient for either the catalytic subunits (CNA1/CNA2; Cyert et al 1991;Liu et al 1991b) or the regulatory subunit (CNB1; Kuno et al 1991;Cyert and Thorner 1992) are viable under standard growth conditions but are sensitive to high concentrations of ions such as Na + , Li + , Mn + , and OH − (Nakamura et al 1993;Mendoza et al 1994;Farcasanu et al 1995;Pozos et al 1996). They also lose viability during sustained treatment with mating pheromone (Moser et al 1996;Withee et al 1997).…”

“…Calcineurin, essential only under specific environmental conditions, is an important mediator of the Ca 2ϩ signal. Calcineurin is required for the recovery from the G 1 arrest induced by mating pheromones and for homeostasis of ions, including Na ϩ /Li ϩ , Mn 2ϩ , and OH Ϫ (13)(14)(15)(16). Calcineurin regulates the expression of ion transporter genes by a mechanism mediated by Crz1, a calcineurin-dependent transcription factor (17,18).…”
