Characterization of yeast mutants lacking alkaline ceramidases YPC1 and YDC1

Voynova, Natalia S. ; Mallela, Shamroop K. ; Vazquez, Hector M. ; Cerantola, Vanessa ; Sonderegger, Mélanie ; Knudsen, Jens ; Ejsing, Christer S. ; Conzelmann, Andreas

In: FEMS Yeast Research, 2014, vol. 14, no. 5, p. 776–788

Humans and yeast possess alkaline ceramidases located in the early secretory pathway. Single deletions of the highly homologous yeast alkaline ceramidases YPC1 and YDC1 have very little genetic interactions or phenotypes. Here, we performed chemical-genetic screens to find deletions/conditions that would alter the growth of ypc1∆ydc1∆ double mutants. These screens...

Yeast cells lacking all known ceramide synthases continue to make complex sphingolipids and to incorporate ceramides into glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)

Vionnet, Christine ; Roubaty, Carole ; Ejsing, Christer S. ; Knudsen, Jens ; Conzelmann, Andreas

In: Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2011, vol. 286, p. 6769-6779

In yeast, the inositolphosphorylceramides mostly contain C26:0 fatty acids. Inositolphosphorylceramides were considered to be important for viability because the inositolphosphorylceramide synthase AUR1 is essential. However, lcb1Δ cells, unable to make sphingoid bases and inositolphosphorylceramides, are viable if they harbor SLC1-1, a gain of function mutation in the...

  • This structure seems to correspond to the prism “seam” described in many Mesozoic mammals and in a number of extant placental and marsupial taxa (e.g., chiropterans, 46 J Mammal Evol (2008) 15:37–58 dermopterans, humans, and Tarsipes; Lester and Hand 1987; Lester 1989; Lester and Koenigswald 1989; Wood and Stern 1997)....

Aureobasidin A arrests growth of yeast cells through both ceramide intoxication and deprivation of essential inositolphosphorylceramides

Cerantola, Vanessa ; Guillas, Isabelle ; Roubaty, Carole ; Vionnet, Christine ; Uldry, Danièle ; Knudsen, Jens ; Conzelmann, Andreas

In: Molecular Microbiology, 2009, vol. 71, no. 6, p. 1523 - 1537

All mature Saccharomyces cerevisiae sphingolipids comprise inositolphosphorylceramides containing C26:0 or C24:0 fatty acids and either phytosphingosine or dihydrosphingosine. Here we analysed the lipid profile of lag1Δlac1Δ mutants lacking acyl-CoA-dependent ceramide synthesis, which require the reverse ceramidase activity of overexpressed Ydc1p for sphingolipid biosynthesis and viability....

The role of lipids in the biogenesis of integral membrane proteins

Schneiter, Roger ; Toulmay, Alexandre

In: Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2007, vol. 73, no. 6, p. 1224-1232

Most integral membrane proteins are cotranslationally inserted into the lipid bilayer. In prokaryotes, membrane insertion of the nascent chain takes place at the plasma membrane, whereas in eukaryotes insertion takes place into the endoplasmatic reticulum. In both kingdoms of life, however, the same membrane that acquaints the newly born membrane protein also synthesizes the bilayer lipids...

Yeast sphingolipids do not need to contain very long chain fatty acids

Cerantola, Vanessa ; Vionnet, Christine ; Aebischer, Olivier F. ; Jenny, Titus A. ; Knudsen, Jens ; Conzelmann, Andreas

In: Biochemical Journal, 2007, vol. 401, no. 1, p. 205-216

Synthesis of VLCFAs (very long chain fatty acids) and biosynthesis of DHS (dihydrosphingosine) both are of vital importance for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The bulk of VLCFAs and DHS are used for ceramide synthesis by the Lag1p (longevity-assurance gene 1)/Lac1p (longevity-assurance gene cognate 1)/Lip1p (Lag1p/Lac1p interacting protein) ceramide synthase. LAG1 and LAC1 are...
