A genome-wide deletion mutant screen identifies pathways affected by nickel sulfate in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract: BackgroundThe understanding of the biological function, regulation, and cellular interactions of the yeast genome and proteome, along with the high conservation in gene function found between yeast genes and their human homologues, has allowed for Saccharomyces cerevisiae to be used as a model organism to deduce biological processes in human cells. Here, we have completed a systematic screen of the entire set of 4,733 haploid S. cerevisiae gene deletion strains (the entire set of nonessential genes for this or… Show more

“…Among the many experiments where S. cerevisiae has proved to be a useful model organism are then many high throughput studies that have aided in the identification of genes and gene products with novel implications in transition metal metabolism (for examples see Pagani et al 2007;Jo et al 2008;Arita et al 2009;Shakoury-Elizeh et al 2010;Takumi et al 2010;Bleackley et al 2011). The contribution of yeast based studies and the identification of homologous systems in humans will continue to facilitate advances in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases involving transition metals while also contributing to the general understanding of how cells maintain the balance of metals as essential nutrients versus toxic entities.…”

“…Ni may also enter the cell via iron transporters, because it was found to interfere with iron uptake (Chen et al 2005). Additionally, several studies point towards a role for the vacuolar H + -ATPase in sequestering Ni into the vacuole, possibly as a histidine conjugate (Joho et al 1995;Nishimura et al 1998;Arita et al 2009). Because Ni interferes with Zrc1p-dependent Zn transport, it is also possible that Ni is transported into the vacuole by this protein.…”

“…stop codon or frameshift mutations), while the effect of all other mutations is predicted to be deleterious based on changes in sequence similarity to a set of homologous protein sequences (PROVEAN score < -2.5 in all cases (Choi et al 2012); Table S3.2). Null mutants of several of these genes have previously been reported to exhibit increased resistance to the metals that we used (Δsmf1/Δfet4: + Cd resistance (Ruotolo et al 2008), Δvip1/Δbul1/Δvtc4: + Ni resistance (Ruotolo et al 2008;Arita et al 2009)) or have increased overall performance in rich nutrient media similar to the medium that we used (Δwhi2 (Qian et al 2012)). …”
