The endoplasmic reticulum cation P-type ATPase Cta4p is required for control of cell shape and microtubule dynamics

Abstract: Here we describe the phenotypic characterization of the cta4 + gene, encoding a novel member of the P4 family of P-type ATPases of fission yeast. The cta4Δ mutant is temperature sensitive and cold sensitive lethal and displays several morphological defects in cell polarity and cytokinesis. Microtubules are generally destabilized in cells lacking Cta4p. The microtubule length is decreased, and the number of microtubules per cell is increased. This is concomitant with an increase in the number of microtubule cat… Show more

“…Rather, the Gcn5 defect appears to cause a specific sensitivity to KCl and CaCl 2 . In comparison, we found no sensitivity to NaCl, MnCl 2 , or FeCl 3 (data not shown) at concentrations that inhibit the growth of mutants defective in the Cta4 ion transporter, which is thought to be involved cation homeostasis (9). Importantly, the conditions (36°C, 1 M KCl, 0.1 M CaCl 2 ) that inhibit colony development of gcn5 Ϫ mutants do not reduce the viability of the mutant cells in relation to the wild type.…”

“…HvP5A1 Localizes to the ER-So far, all examined P5A ATPases have been identified in membranes of the secretory pathway (12)(13)(14)(15)20). To test whether this is also true for HvP5A1, we investigated its subcellular localization in planta.…”

“…P5A ATPases appear to be exclusively expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), 6 and loss of the P5A ATPase gene function leads to broad unspecific phenotypes related to an inability to control basic ER functions (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). The best characterized P5A ATPase is Spf1p in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (18).…”
