A distinct inner nuclear membrane proteome in Saccharomyces cerevisiae gametes.

ABSTRACT: The inner nuclear membrane (INM) proteome regulates gene expression, chromatin organization, and nuclear transport; however, it is poorly understood how changes in INM protein composition contribute to developmentally regulated processes, such as gametogenesis. We conducted a screen to determine how the INM proteome differs between mitotic cells and gametes. In addition, we used a strategy that allowed us to determine if spores synthesize their INM proteins de novo, rather than inheriting their INM proteins from the parental cell. This screen used a split-GFP complementation system, where we were able to compare the distribution of all C-terminally tagged transmembrane proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae in gametes to that of mitotic cells. Gametes contain a distinct INM proteome needed t
