The osmotic integrity of the yeast cell requires a functional PKC1 gene product.

GLAXO Institute for Molecular Biology, Geneva, Switzerland.

ABSTRACT

Seven temperature-sensitive cell lysis (cly) mutant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were isolated which lyse at the restrictive temperature on hypotonic but not on osmotically supported medium. The seven mutants fell into four complementation groups, CLY12 to CLY15. The wild-type CLY15 gene was isolated by complementation of the cly15 temperature-sensitive growth defect. Sequence analysis revealed that the complementing DNA fragment encoded a partial PKC1 gene, which has previously been isolated as an S. cerevisiae homolog of mammalian protein kinase C genes (D. E. Levin, F. O. Fields, R. Kunisawa, J. M. Bishop, and J. Thorner, Cell 62:213-224, 1990). Subsequent genetic analysis showed that CLY15 and PKC1 represent identical loci in the yeast genome. A truncated PKC1 gene encoding only the predicted catalytic domain of Pkc1p was able to complement pkc1 mutant strains. Similar to what has been reported recently (D. E. Levin and E. Bartlett-Heubusch, J. Cell Biol. 116:1221-1229, 1992), we observed that cells deleted for the PKC1 gene are viable when grown on osmotically stabilized medium but are osmotically fragile and lyse rapidly after a shift to hypotonic medium. As shown by light and electron microscopic examinations, the delta pkc1 strain exhibits many cells with a strongly elongated bud or chains of incompletely budded cells when grown on solid medium.
