Abstract


In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the PAH1-encoded Mg2+-dependent phosphatidate (PA) phosphatase Pah1 regulates the bifurcation of PA to diacylglycerol (DAG) for triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis and to CDP-DAG for phospholipid synthesis. Pah1 function is mainly regulated via control of its cellular location by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. Pah1 phosphorylated by multiple protein kinases is sequestered in the cytosol apart from its substrate PA in the membrane. The phosphorylated Pah1 is then recruited and dephosphorylated by the protein phosphatase complex Nem1 (catalytic subunit)-Spo7 (regulatory subunit) in the endoplasmic reticulum. The dephosphorylated Pah1 hops onto and scoots along the membrane to recognize PA for its dephosphorylation to DAG. Here, we developed a proteoliposome model system that mimics the Nem1-Spo7/Pah1 phosphatase cascade to provide a tool for studying Pah1 regulation. Purified Nem1-Spo7 was reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles prepared in accordance with the phospholipid composition of the nuclear/endoplasmic reticulum membrane. The Nem1-Spo7 phosphatase reconstituted in the proteoliposomes, which were measured 60 nm in an average diameter, was catalytically active on Pah1 phosphorylated by Pho85-Pho80, and its active site was located at the external side of the phospholipid bilayer. Moreover, we determined that PA stimulated the Nem1-Spo7 activity, and the regulatory effect was governed by the nature of the phosphate headgroup but not by the fatty acyl moiety of PA. The reconstitution system for the Nem1-Spo7/Pah1 phosphatase cascade, which starts with the phosphorylation of Pah1 by Pho85-Pho80 and ends with the production of DAG, is a significant advance to understand a regulatory cascade in yeast lipid synthesis.
