Yil102c-A is a Functional Homologue of the DPMII Subunit of Dolichyl Phosphate Mannose Synthase in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>

In a wide range of organisms, dolichyl phosphate mannose (DPM) synthase is a complex of tree proteins Dpm1, Dpm2, and Dpm3. However, in the yeast <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>, it is believed to be a single Dpm1 protein. The function of Dpm3 is performed in <i>S. cerevisiae</i...

description In a wide range of organisms, dolichyl phosphate mannose (DPM) synthase is a complex of tree proteins Dpm1, Dpm2, and Dpm3. However, in the yeast <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>, it is believed to be a single Dpm1 protein. The function of Dpm3 is performed in <i>S. cerevisiae</i> by the C-terminal transmembrane domain of the catalytic subunit Dpm1. Until present, the regulatory Dpm2 protein has not been found in <i>S. cerevisiae</i>. In this study, we show that, in fact, the Yil102c-A protein interacts directly with Dpm1 in <i>S. cerevisiae</i> and influences its DPM synthase activity. Deletion of the <i>YIL102c-A</i> gene is lethal, and this phenotype is reversed by the <i>dpm2</i> gene from <i>Trichoderma reesei</i>. Functional analysis of Yil102c-A revealed that it also interacts with glucosylphosphatidylinositol-<i>N</i>-acetylglucosaminyl transferase (GPI-GnT), similar to DPM2 in human cells. Taken together, these results show that Yil102c-A is a functional homolog of DPMII from <i>T. reesei</i> and DPM2 from humans.
