Protein misfolding and temperature up-shift cause G 1 arrest via a common mechanism dependent on heat shock factor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract: Accumulation of misfolded proteins in the cell at high temperature may cause entry into a nonproliferating, heat-shocked state. The imino acid analog azetidine 2-carboxylic acid (AZC) is incorporated into cellular protein competitively with proline and can misfold proteins into which it is incorporated. AZC addition to budding yeast cells at concentrations sufficient to inhibit proliferation selectively activates heat shock factor (HSF). We find that AZC treatment fails to cause accumulation of glycogen and tr… Show more

“…Temperature-dependent cell cycle inhibition can be mimicked by treatment with low concentrations of the imino acid analog azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (AZC), a compound that causes the misfolding of nascent polypeptides via a substitution for the amino acid proline. AZC is toxic at high concentrations, but at low concentrations (10 mM or lower), it causes both G 1 arrest and the repression of CLN1 and CLN2 (466). These data suggest that G 1 arrest is not necessarily a direct physiological phenomenon but rather a signaled event.…”

“…We predicted that constitutive HSR activation resulting in increased HSP abundance should protect against high levels of protein misfolding. To test this hypothesis, we challenged cells with AZC, a proline analog that incorporates into nascent chains causing protein misfolding (41,64,65). As shown in Fig.…”

“…With additional heat treatment vitality was not significantly lower. The light heat shock for 3 h to 35°C was meant to initiate a heat stress response (11,34) and thus expected to produce a more significant loss of vitality. Storage in ethanol affected yeast vitality to a greater extent.…”
