Cloning and characterization of the low-affinity cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York 11724.

ABSTRACT

Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains two genes which encode cyclic AMP (cAMP) phosphodiesterase. We previously isolated and characterized PDE2, which encodes a high-affinity cAMP phosphodiesterase. We have now isolated the PDE1 gene of S. cerevisiae, which encodes a low-affinity cAMP phosphodiesterase. These two genes represent highly divergent branches in the evolution of phosphodiesterases. High-copy-number plasmids containing either PDE1 or PDE2 can reverse the growth arrest defects of yeast cells carrying the RAS2(Val-19) mutation. PDE1 and PDE2 appear to account for the aggregate cAMP phosphodiesterase activity of S. cerevisiae. Disruption of both PDE genes results in a phenotype which resembles that induced by the RAS2(Val-19) mutation. pde1- pde2- ras1- ras2- cells are viable.
