Crosstalk between protein N-glycosylation and lipid metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

ABSTRACT: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a multi functional organelle and plays a crucial role in protein folding and lipid biosynthesis. The SEC59 gene encodes dolichol kinase, required for protein glycosylation in the ER. The mutation of sec59-1 caused a protein N-glycosylation defect mediated ER stress resulting in increased levels of phospholipid, neutral lipid and sterol, whereas growth was reduced. In the sec59-1∆ cell, the N-glycosylation of vacuolar carboxy peptidase-Y (CPY) was significantly reduced; whereas the ER stress marker Kar2p and unfolded protein response (UPR) were significantly increased. Increased levels of Triacylglycerol (TAG), sterol ester (SE), and lipid droplets (LD) could be attributed to up-regulation of DPP1, LRO1, and ARE2 in the sec 59-1∆ cell. Also, the diacylglyce
