Abstract
-
It was reported that LAMMER kinase in Schizosaccharomyces pombe plays an important role in cation-dependent and
galactose-specific flocculation. Analogous to other flocculating yeasts, when cell wall extracts of the Δlkh1 strain were treated
to the wild-type strain, it displayed flocculation. Gas2, a 1,3-β-glucanosyl transferase, was isolated from the EDTA-extracted
cell-surface proteins in the Δlkh1 strain. While disruption of the gas2+ gene was not lethal and reduced the flocculation
activity of the Δlkh1 strain, the expression of a secreted form of Gas2, in which the GPI anchor addition sequences had been
removed, conferred the ability to flocculate upon the WT strain. The Gas2-mediated flocculation was strongly inhibited by
galactose but not by glucose. Immunostaining analysis showed that the cell surface localization of Gas2 was crucial for the
flocculation of fission yeast. In addition, we identified the regulation of mbx2+ expression by Lkh1 using RT-qPCR. Taken
together, we found that Lkh1 induces asexual flocculation by regulating not only the localization of Gas2 but also the transcription
of gas2+ through Mbx2.

Abstract

Gel-free shotgun phosphoproteomics of unicellular cyanobacterium
Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 has not been reported
up to now. The purpose of this study is to develop directed
membrane phosphoproteomic method in Synechocystis sp.
Total Synechocystis membrane proteins were separated by
sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
and phosphoprotein-stained gel bands were selectively subjected
to in-gel trypsin digestion. The phosphorylation sites
of the resulting peptides were determined by assigning the
neutral loss of [M-H3PO4] to Ser, Thr, and Tyr residues using
nano-liquid chromatography 7 Tesla Fourier transform mass
spectrometry. As an initial application, 111 proteins and 33
phosphoproteins were identified containing 11 integral membrane
proteins. Identified four unknown phosphoproteins
with transmembrane helices were suggested to be involved in
membrane migration or transporters based on BLASTP search
annotations. The overall distribution of hydrophobic amino
acids in pTyr was lower in frequency than that of pSer or
pThr. Positively charged amino acids were abundantly revealed
in the surrounding amino acids centered on pTyr. A
directed shotgun membrane phosphoproteomic strategy provided
insight into understanding the fundamental regulatory
processes underlying Ser, Thr, and Tyr phosphorylation in
multi-layered membranous cyanobacteria.

Abstract
-
Two novel calcium-binding proteins, named CAB-I and CAB-II, have been isolated from Streptomyces coelicolor. Purification of the calcium-binding proteins involved heat treatment, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, acid treatment, anion exchange and hydrophobic interaction column chromatography, FPLC gel filtration, and preparative isoelectric focusing. A chelex competitive assay and ^45Ca autoradiography verified the calcium-binding ability of the proteins. The major band CAB-II has an apparent molecular weight of 26,000 determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 340,000 determined by gel filtration. The isoelectric point of this molecule showed the acidic nature of the molecule. N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis shows homology to rat Ca^2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase-II (CAB-II) and yeast phosphoprotein phosphatase (CAB-I).
