| 1 | Temperature-sensitive cytoophidium assembly in Schizosaccharomyces pombe显示文摘The metabolic enzyme CTP synthase(CTPS) is able to compartmentalize into filaments,termed cytoophidia,in a variety of organisms including bacteria,budding yeast,fission yeast,fruit flies and mammals.A previous study in budding yeast shows that the filament-forming process of CTPS is not sensitive to temperature shift.Here we study CTPS filamentation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.To our surprise,we find that both the length and the occurrence of cytoophidia in S.pombe decrease upon cold shock or heat shock.The temperature-dependent changes of cytoophidia are fast and reversible.Taking advantage of yeast genetics,we demonstrate that heat-shock proteins are required for cytoophidium assembly in S.pombe.Temperature sensitivity of cytoophidia makes S.pombe an attractive model system for future investigations of this novel membraneless organelle. | Jing Zhang Ji-Long Liu | 2019 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2019，46，9： | 5 |
| 2 | mTOR-S6K1 pathway mediates cytoophidium assembly显示文摘CTP synthase(CTPS), the rate-limiting enzyme in de novo CTP biosynthesis, has been demonstrated to assemble into evolutionarily conserved filamentous structures, termed cytoophidia, in Drosophila, bacteria, yeast and mammalian cells. However, the regulation and function of the cytoophidium remain elusive. Here, we provide evidence that the mechanistic target of rapamycin(mTOR) pathway controls cytoophidium assembly in mammalian and Drosophila cells. In mammalian cells, we find that inhibition of mTOR pathway attenuates cytoophidium formation. Moreover, CTPS cytoophidium assembly appears to be dependent on the mTOR complex 1(mTORC1) mainly. In addition, knockdown of the mTORC1 downstream target S6 K1 can inhibit cytoophidium formation, while overexpression of the constitutively active S6 K1 reverses mTOR knockdown-induced cytoophidium disassembly. Finally, reducing m TOR protein expression results in a decrease of the length of cytoophidium in Drosophila follicle cells.Therefore, our study connects CTPS cytoophidium formation with the mTOR signaling pathway. | Zhe Sun Ji-Long Liu | 2019 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2019，46，2： | 3 |
