PKA regulatory subunit Bcy1 couples growth, lipid metabolism, and fermentation during anaerobic xylose growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract
Past work from our lab, focused on engineering the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for fermentation of the non-native pentose sugar xylose, discovered that hyperactivation of the RAS/Protein Kinase A (PKA) pathway was needed for rapid anaerobic xylose fermentation. Interestingly, the mechanism of PKA hyperactivation has a dramatic impact on growth and metabolism on xylose; deletion of the RAS inhibitor IRA2 permits rapid growth and fermentation, while deletion of the PKA regulatory subunit BCY1 allows for fermentation without growth on xylose. To understand how a single deletion in the PKA pathway can decouple growth and metabolism, we performed transcriptomic analysis of these strains, predicting that altered PKA activity would impact global gene expression and identify pathways important for growth and metabolism coordination.
