Mössbauer, EPR, and Modeling Study of Iron Trafficking and Regulation in Δccc1 and CCC1-up Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract: Strains lacking and overexpressing the vacuolar iron (Fe) importer CCC1 were characterized using Mössbauer and EPR spectroscopies. Vacuolar Fe import is impeded in Δccc1 cells and enhanced in CCC1-up cells, causing vacuolar Fe in these strains to decline and accumulate, respectively, relative to WT cells. Cytosolic Fe levels should behave oppositely. The Fe content of Δccc1 cells grown under low-Fe conditions was similar to that in WT cells. Most Fe was mitochondrial with some nonheme high spin (NHHS) FeII pre… Show more

“…Our goal was merely to explore essential aspects of the regulation at four key traffic sites. To do this, we used surrogate mathematical expressions-called "Reg functions"-to mimic regulatory behavior (6,37). Reg functions can be viewed as valves that dynamically adjust between closed and fully opened to smoothly regulate traffic flow through a site.…”

“…A NHHS Fe II species evident in Mössbauer spectra of adenine-deficient whole cells may also be located in vacuoles (7). Under adeninesufficient conditions in which the vacuolar iron importer Ccc1 is either absent or overproduced, high levels of Fe II are present (6).…”

“…The utilization of biophysical spectroscopies has recently allowed the detailed examination of yeast iron contents in terms of growth phase, chemical form, and distribution within organelles (25,26,29). In the exponential growth phase, the intracellular yeast iron level remains roughly constant due to a balance between iron import and cellular division (26).…”

“…When mitochondrial Fe–S cluster synthesis is diminished, cytosolic Aft1 and Aft2 are translocated to the nucleus and bind to target DNA resulting in transcription of the “low iron regulon”. While Aft1 and Aft2 are the major low-iron sensing transcription factors, mathematical modeling of yeast iron acquisition suggests that there may be other transcription factors that respond to changes in cytosolic iron levels (Cockrell et al 2014). …”
