Implications of maintenance of mother-bud neck size in diverse vital processes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract:

:The mother-bud neck is defined as the boundary between the mother cell and bud in budding microorganisms, wherein sequential morphological events occur throughout the cell cycle. This study was designed to quantitatively investigate the morphology of the mother-bud neck in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Observation of yeast cells with time-lapse microscopy revealed an increase of mother-bud neck size through the cell cycle. After screening of yeast non-essential gene-deletion mutants with the image processing software CalMorph, we comprehensively identified 274 mutants with broader necks during S/G2 phase. Among these yeasts, we extensively analyzed 19 representative deletion mutants with defects in genes annotated to six gene ontology terms (polarisome, actin reorganization, endosomal tethering complex, carboxy-terminal domain protein kinase complex, DNA replication, and maintenance of DNA trinucleotide repeats). The representative broad-necked mutants exhibited calcofluor white sensitivity, suggesting defects in their cell walls. Correlation analysis indicated that maintenance of mother-bud neck size is important for cellular processes such as cell growth, system robustness, and replicative lifespan. We conclude that neck-size maintenance in budding yeast is regulated by numerous genes and has several aspects that are physiologically significant.
