A yeast two-hybrid screening by using PAP1 was performed to identify targets for PAP1-PHO85 cyclin-CDK complex. N-terminal fragment of protein YLR190w, a yeast gene encoding a 491 amino acids peptide, was identified, and its coding region was amplified by PCR. The interaction of PAP1 and YLR190w was confirmed by both two-hybrid assay and GST pull-down assay in vitro. The PAP1-PHO85 kinase complex obtained from the immunoprecipitates could phosphorylate GST-YLR190w expressed in E.coli, and the phosphorylation of YLR190w was affected by the phosphate concentration, and the phosphorylation sites of YLR190w were Ser/Thr-Promotif, as revealed by protein mutation assay. In another library screen, YAF9, a yeast homolog of human AF9, was isolated using the two-hybrid system with YLR190w as the bait. It was revealed that interaction of YLR190w and YAF9 was affected by phosphate concentration. When all Ser/Thr in Ser/Thr-Pro motif were mutated to Ala, the interaction of YLR190w (mutant) and YAF9 was weakened, and the effect of phosphate concentration was impaired. Ylr190w was not involved in the PHO system by the acid phosphatase activity assay. Deletion of Ylr190w was constructed by homologous recombination and the doubling time of Ylr190w mutant strain as longer than that of wild type.

The potential function of neuronal tau was found by our recent studies on the effect of tau on the melting temperature of both calf thymus DNA and plasmid pBluescript-II SK (Hua and He, Chin. Sci. Bull. 2000, 45:999-1001). Herein we examined whether or not the interaction of tau with DNA was related to phosphorylation and aggregation. Tau, phosphorylated by neuronal cdc2-like kinase, associated with DNA as shown by electrophoretic mobility shift assay. Similar to native tau, phosphorylated tau could increase the melting temperature of calf thymus DNA. When tau was aggregated or treated with formaldehyde, neither native tau nor phosphorylated tau kept its ability to interact with DNA, suggesting that binding of tau to DNA was in an aggregation-dependent, and a phosphorylation-independent, manner.

Homology comparison of the novel PAP1 protein indicated that PAP1 protein is highly homologous to PHO85-associated protein PHO80, PCL1 and PCL2. We constructed the fused HA-PAP1 gene in frame for immunoprecipitation with anti-HA monoclonal antibody. Coimmunoprecipitation of fused HA-PAP1 and PHO85 protein, which were translated in vitro, verified the association of PAP1 with PHO85 protein. Simultaneously, we purified PHO4 protein expressed in E. coli and constructed a PHO85::TRP1 strain. After arranging the fused gene under the control of yeast ADH1 promoter, we transformed the resulting plasmids into yeast YPH499 and PHO85::TRP1 respectively, then prepared the yeast lysates for immunoprecipitation with anti-HA. We found that the immunoprecipitant complex of PAP1 can phosphorylate PHO4 protein in vitro, and the kinase activity is PHO85-associated, but is not related to CDC28 protein kinase. These data suggest that PAP1 is a putative cyclin and can form cyclin-CDK complex with PHO85 protein. Northern bolt with PAP1 gene as probe indicated there was no obvious difference during the different phase of the cell-cycle in the transcription of PAP1 gene. We constructed the PAP1::TRP1 strain, and the rAPase activity analysis showed PAP1 had no function in the PHO system.

PHO85 is a versatile gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is involved in metabolism of inorganic phosphate and usage of carbon source, accumulation of glycogen, regulation of protein stability and cell cycle control. The viability of wild type budding yeast strain YPH499 and its derivative pho85Delta mutant, pho80 mutant, and pap1(pcl-7)Delta mutant in different cations were investigated and their tolerance to the cations(LC(50)) was measured. The results showed that the deletion of PHO85 or PHO80 gene both increased sensibility of Sacchromyces cerevisiae to ions K(+), Mg(2+), Zn(2+), Ca(2+) and Mn(2+), while the deletion of pap1(pcl-7) gene did not lead to such phenotype. The difference between the patterns of relative growth curve of the mutants and wild type strain in the above ions also implied that PHO80 was the unique PCLs in complex with PHO85 CDK, that were contributed to K(+) and Mg(2+) ion homeostasis control and there were some other PCLs besides PHO80 that were involved in Zn(2+), Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) tolerance regulation as cyclin of PHO85 CDK. Furthermore, the amount of the total cellular calcium of pho85Delta mutant, pho80Delta mutant and YPH499 indicated that the ability of calcium accumulation of pho85 mutant and pho80Delta mutant was impaired.
