The Npr1 Kinase Controls Biosynthetic and Endocytic Sorting of the Yeast Gap1 Permease

Résumé

Membrane trafficking of the general amino acid per-mease (Gap1) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is under nitrogen regulation. In cells growing on proline or urea as the sole nitrogen source, newly synthesized Gap1 is delivered to the plasma membrane, where it accumulates. Upon addition of NH 4 , a preferential nitrogen source, Gap1 is endocytosed and targeted to the vacuole, where it is degraded. This down-regulation requires ubiquiti-nation of the permease, and this ubiquitination is dependent on the essential Npi1/Rsp5 ubiquitin ligase. In this study, we investigated the role of the Npr1 kinase in the regulation of Gap1 trafficking. We show that Npr1 is required for stabilization of Gap1 at the plasma membrane: when an npr1 ts mutant growing on proline is shifted to the restrictive temperature, Gap1 down-regulation is triggered, as it is when NH 4 is added to wild-type cells. The fate of newly synthesized Gap1 en route to the plasma membrane is also under Npr1 control: in an npr1 mutant, neosynthesized Gap1 is sorted from the Golgi to the vacuole without passing via the plasma membrane. Similar direct sorting of neosynthesized Gap1 to the vacuole was observed in wild-type cells grown on NH 4. Finally, Gap1 is phosphorylated in NPR1 cells, but this phosphorylation is not strictly dependent on Npr1. Our results show that Npr1 kinase plays a central role in the physiological control of Gap1 trafficking and that this control is exerted not only on Gap1 present at the plasma membrane but also on Gap1 late in the secretory pathway. Npr1 belongs to a subgroup of protein kinases, some of which are reported to exert a positive control on the activity of other permeases. We propose that these kinases also function as regulators of permease trafficking.
