• In a rapidly growing yeast cell: • 60% of total transcription is
devoted to ribosomal RNA • 50% of RNA polymerase II
transcription and • 90% of mRNA splicing are devoted
to ribosomal proteins (RPs) (Warner, JR; 1999)
• Growth is targetted, depending on cell
cycle phase:
Moseley and Goode 2006
Nutritional requirements
Energy/carbon source - Fermentative carbon sources;
- Glucose/Fructose/Mannose (Glucose repression) - Galactose/Sucrose/Raffinose (Glucose repressed)
- Non-fermentative carbon sources; - Ethanol, Glycerol
Nitrogen source - Ammonium, amino acids - Priority; Nitrogen Catabolite Repression (NCR)
Minerals and vitamins (e.g. YNB) - Phosphate, Sulphate, etc.
Amino acids (auxotrophic strains)
Anaerobic specific requirements: - Sterol (Ergosterol) - Unsaturated fatty acids (Tween 80)

Glycolysis: - Redox neutral fermentation - Anaerobic growth possible:
- Biomass balanced by glycerol production (NADH reoxidation)
- Fermentation even under aerobic conditions -> EtOH Varela et al. 2012
Metabolism: Carbon
Lindegren 1949
The TCA cycle: - Produce reducing power for oxidative
phosphorylation (NADH; FADH) - Produce intermediates for biomass
production - Surplus NADH can be reoxidised via
glycerol biosynthesis (anaerobically) Varela et al. 2012
Metabolism: Nitrogen
Ljungdahl & Daignan-Fornier 2O12
Nitrogen metabolism NH4
+ fixation via Glutamate and Glutamine biosynthesis
De novo synthesis of other Amino acids and Nucleotides use amine groups from Glutamine or Glutamate
Quality differences among nitrogen sources; cell utilises good N-source first: Catabolism of good N-sources
yield carbon skeletons that can be metabolised
while the carbon skeletons of bad N-sources are converted into growth inhibitory fusel oils.
Metabolism: Nitrogen
Nitrogen metabolism Amino acid biosynthesis
start from glycolytic or TCA cycle intermediates
Glycolysis and TCA needed for biogenesis – not only energy production
TCA cycle needed even when cells grow fermentatively or even anaerobically
Biomass production is not redox neutral – accumulation of reducing equivalents (NADH).
Leads to redox imbalance during anaerobic growth -> solved via production and export of glycerol. Ljungdahl & Daignan-Fornier 2O12
Metabolism: Sulfur assimilation
Sulfur metabolism Sulphate (SO4
2-) uptake via Sul1 and Sul2.
Reduction to Sulfide (S2-). Incorporation into
homocysteine. Methyl cycle: Methionine
and SAM. Transsulfuration: Cystein. Cystein + Glutamate +
Glycin = Gluthathione; redoxbuffer.
Met4 TF master regulator of the sulfur assimilation pathway(s).
In turn inhibited by Cystein. Ljungdahl & Daignan-Fornier 2O12
Uptake
Channels Symporters Antiporters Pumps Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion Along gradient only (electrochemical)
Multiple affinities
General vs. specific channels
Consumption maintains gradient
E.g.; Hxt1-11, Hxt13, Hxt15-17, Gal2 Agp1, Agp2, Gap1,… Fps1 (gated)
Secondary active transport Import/export linked to co-factor
Uses combined gradient
Pumps may create initial gradient
E.g.; Nha1 (H+) Pho84 (H+), Pho89 (Na+)
Primary active transport Import/export consumes ATP
E.g.; Pma1/Pma2 Ena1
Passive diffusion Along gradient only
E.g., Weak acids (protonated) Ethanol
Substrate-specific transmembrane transporter activity [301 gene products] alcohol [5 gene products] amide [1 gene products] amine [46 gene products] carbohydrate [30 gene products] coenzyme A [1 gene products] FAD [4 gene products] ion [166 gene products] macromolecule [20 gene products] (ER/mitoch.) nicotinamide mononucleotide [1 gene products] nucleobase, nucleoside, nucleotide and nucleic acid [16 gene products] Oligopeptide [3 gene products] organic acid [59 gene products] (includes aa) substrate-specific channel activity [15 gene products] Thiamine [2 gene products] water [3 gene products]

Cells invest ATP to extrude protons: >20% (possibly more than >50%) of cellular energy consumption.
pH gradient; electrochemical force
K+ influx balances the electrical potential; increased chemical gradient
Chemical gradient used for charge neutral symport and antiport
Problems in Alkaline environment – difficult/impossible to maintain a sufficient delta-pH: switch to alternative systems
Two coupled forms of cellular energy: ATP and the proton gradient (over PM, Vacuolar membrane and Inner mitochondrial membrane).

Passive diffusion along the concentration gradient
Gradient is maintained steep by rapid depletion of intracellular metabolite, e.g. by sugar phosphoryaltion
Multiple permease affinities to optimise uptake
Repression of general permeases in presence of preferred substrates – minimising loss through leakage?

Uptake Gradients
• Sixteen in yeast • Basic structural element in the nucleus • Chromatin structure in interphase cells
heterogeneous – reversible modifications of DNA and
histones. – results in altered physical properties:
• local chromatin folding • three-dimensional organisation of the
genome
• Interacts with the stable structural elements:
– the nuclear envelope: • embedded SPB(s) • tethers for heterochromatin • tethers for ribosomal DNA
– the nuclear pores – the nucleolus
The Chromosomes
Llorente et al. 2000
DNA replication
Replication initiation Requires licensed origins (assembled in the absence of Cdk1 activity). Cdk1-Clb5/Cdk1-Clb6 phosphorylates multiple components to fire the licensed origins. Dissociation of key components prevent firing before licensing in the next G1 – prevents multiple cycles of DNA
replication in the same cell division cycle.

Nutrient signalling
Protein Kinase A (PKA) • Signal via cyclic AMP (cAMP) • Active during growth • Inhibits the general stress response (Msn2/Msn4) • Essential for cell cycle progression • Conserved to human
Snf3/Rgt2 • Sugar sensors • Sugar transporters with long c-terminal tails • Regulates hexose transporter expression • Similar system for nitrogen: Ssy1/Ptr3/Ssy5
Snf1 • Inactive on glucose (glucose repression) • Activates use of alternative carbon sources (inhibits Mig1) • Essential for growth on sucrose, ethanol,
galactose, etc. • Conserved to human (AMPK); implicated in
diabetes
Target of Rapamycin (TOR) • TORC1 signals abundant nitrogen (Tor1 or Tor2) • Regulates e.g. translation • Activation mechanism unknown • Inhibited by Rapamycin
• TORC2 is involved in cell polarity (Tor2)
• Essential • Conserved to human (mTOR)
MAPK signalling
• Conserved core of three kinases: MAPKKK -> MAPKK -> MAPK
• Stimuli and output related to cell
morphology
• Upstream components include cell polarity machinery (Cdc42, Rho1)
• MAPK shuttles between cytoplasm
and nucleus
• MAPK localises to promoters and take active part in transcriptional activation
• Conserved to human
Mating pathway (MAT) • Responds to pheromone; triggers cell cycle arrest and partner search (schmooing) Pseudohyphal differentiation (PHD) • Triggered by nutrient depletion, triggers foraging behaviour High osmolarity (glycerol; HOG) • Responds to dehydration (hyper-osmotic stress)
Protein kinase C (PKC) • Responds to cell wall stress; e.g. hypo-osmolarity, heat, calcofluor

Nucleus
Nucleolus
Mitochondria Vacuoles
Lipid bodies
• Harbours the genetic material • Ensures that the genetic material is
properly: – expressed – duplicated – repaired – segregated
• And that RNA is properly: – processed – exported
The Nucleus
Utsugi et al. 1999
The Mitochondria
Oxelmark et al. 2000
• The cellular power plant – Harbours the respiratory chain – Respiration is optional (mutants viable)
• Essential for anabolism – TCA cycle provides building blocks – Mitochondrial biogenesis mutants lethal
• Dynamic: – Responsive to carbon source – Regulated fusion and fission – Active migration to daughter cells
• Mitochondrial DNA – 28 ORFs (6575) – 17 verified ORFs (5036) – 2 uncharacterised ORFs (761) – 9 dubious ORFs (778) – 24 tRNA (275) – 2 rRNA (25) – 1 ncRNA (14) – Total: 55 features; 85.779 bp
Peroxisomes
• No β-oxidation in yeast mitochondria • β-oxidation occurs exclusively in
peroxisomes • Peroxisomes are massively induced during
growth on fatty acids as sole carbon source
• β-oxidation 1. CoA activation 2. Oxidation 3. Hydration/Dehydrogenation 4. Thiolytical cleavage Produces Acetyl-CoA -> Mitochondria for oxidation
• The glyoxylate cycle – Converts 2 Acetyl-CoA into Succinate – Replenish the TCA cycle – Essential for growth on oleate or 2C
