Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To elucidate the recycling mechanism and function of vacuolar carbohydrate in yeast, I focused on regulatory mechanism of Ams1 enzyme respond to nutrition. As a result, it was found that this enzyme was strongly upregulated respond to starvation at both transcription level and post-translationl level. It was also revealed that this enzyme was tightly suppressed by TORC1 in nutrient rich condition, but induced by a stress-induced transcritional factor and by protease dependent processing in the vacuoles. These results suggested that yeast may recycle degradation product of intracellular mannnose in the vacuole especially in starved condition.
