Alkaline pH stress invokes in S. cerevisiae a potent and fast transcriptional response that includes many genes repressed by glucose. Certain mutants in the glucose-sensing and response pathways, such as those lacking the Snf1 kinase, are sensitive to alkalinization. We show that addition of glucose...

We are interested in the study of the already reported sensitivity of yeast cells lacking the type 1 protein phosphatase Ptc1 to the drug rapamycin. In order to carry out our studies, we analyzed the changes in the transcription profile that a short-term incubation with rapamycin (200 ng/mL) has in ...

Potassium is the major intracellular cation in S. cerevisiae, which can be concentrated up to 200-300 mM even from relatively low potassium (< 1 mM) environments. This is achieved by mean of a high affinity K+-transport system encoded by the genes TRK1 and TRK2. Recently, our group became interested...

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene PIF1 encodes a conserved eukaryotic DNA helicase required for both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA integrity. Our previous work revealed that a pif1D strain is tolerant to zinc overload. We demonstrate here that this effect is independent of the Pif1 helicase activity...

The yeast proteins Pkh1 and Pkh2 are functional counterparts of the mammalian 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1). Cells carrying simultaneous deletion in both genes, PKH1 and PKH2 are not viable, at least in some genetic backgrounds (Casamayor et al., 1999; Inagaki et al., 1999). C...

RNA polymerases deal with obstacles during transcription elongation that need to be removed. One important type of hindrance consists of DNA lesions, which are removed by transcription-coupled repair (TCR). To improve our knowledge of transcription elongation and its coupling to TCR, we performed DN...

Type 2C protein phosphatases are encoded in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by several related genes (PTC1-7). To gain insight into the functions attributable to a specific member of this gene family, we have investigated the transcriptional profile of ptc6 mutants under standard growth conditions. We have...

Ypi1 is an essential regulator of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Glc7 protein phosphatase. Although lack of Ypi1 results in a dramatic blockage in the G2/M cell cycle transition, with abnormally shaped large buds and short spindles, the molecular bases for this phenotype are still obscure. We report h...
