Protein phosphatase type 1, encoded by GLC7 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is an essential serine/threonine phosphatase implicated in the regulation of a diverse array of physiological functions. We constructed and examined 20 mutant alleles of GLC7 in which codons encoding clusters of charged residues were changed to alanine codons. Three of 20 mutant alleles alter residues in the active site of the phosphatase and are unable to rescue the lethality of a glc7::LEU2 disruption. The 17 alleles that support growth confer a range of mutant traits including cell cycle arrest, 2-deoxyglucose resistance, altered levels of glycogen, sensitivity to high salt, and sporulation defects. For some traits, such as 2-deoxyglucose resistance and cell cycle arrest, the mutated residues map to specific regions of the protein whereas the mutated residues in glycogen-deficient mutants and sporulation-defective mutants are more widely distributed over the protein surface. Many mutants have complex phenotypes, each displaying a diverse range of defects. The wide range of phenotypes identified from the collection of mutant alleles is consistent with the hypothesis that Glc7p-binding proteins, which are thought to regulate the specificity of Glc7p, have overlapping binding sites on the surface of Glc7p. This could account for the high level of sequence conservation found among type 1 protein phosphatases from different species.

The suppressor of the dis2 mutant (sds22+) has been shown to be an essential regulator in cell division of fission and budding yeast where its deletion causes mitotic arrest. Its role seems to take place through the activation of PP1 (protein phosphatase type 1) in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. In the trematode Schistosoma mansoni, we have identified the Sds22 homologue (SmSds), and the PP1 (SmPP1). We showed by using a GST (glutathione S-transferase) pull-down assay that the SmSds gene product interacts with SmPP1 and that the SmSds–SmPP1 complex is present in parasite extracts. Furthermore, we observed that SmSds inhibited PP1 activity. Functional studies showed that the microinjection of SmSds into Xenopus oocytes interacted with the Xenopus PP1 and disrupted the G2/M cell-cycle checkpoint by promoting progression to GVBD (germinal vesicle breakdown). Similar results showing the appearance of GVBD were observed when oocytes were treated with anti-PP1 antibodies. Taken together, these observations suggest that SmSds can regulate the cell cycle by binding to PP1.

Abstract We have identified two proteins that bind with high specificity to type 1 serine/threonine protein phosphatase (PP1) and have exploited their inhibitory properties to develop an efficient and flexible strategy for conditional inactivation of PP1 in vivo. We show that modest overexpression of Drosophila homologs of I-2 and NIPP1 (I-2Dm and NIPP1Dm) reduces the level of PP1 activity and phenotypically resembles known PP1 mutants. These phenotypes, which include lethality, abnormal mitotic figures, and defects in muscle development, are suppressed by coexpression of PP1, indicating that the effect is due specifically to loss of PP1 activity. Reactivation of I-2Dm:PP1c complexes suggests that inhibition of PP1 activity in vivo does not result in a compensating increase in synthesis of active PP1. PP1 mutants enhance the wing overgrowth phenotype caused by ectopic expression of the type II TGFβ superfamily signaling receptor Punt. Using I-2Dm, which has a less severe effect than NIPP1Dm, we show that lowering the level of PP1 activity specifically in cells overexpressing Punt is sufficient for wing overgrowth and that the interaction between PP1 and Punt requires the type I receptor Thick-veins (Tkv) but is not strongly sensitive to the level of the ligand, Decapentaplegic (Dpp), nor to that of the other type I receptors. This is consistent with a role for PP1 in antagonizing Punt by preventing phosphorylation of Tkv. These studies demonstrate that inhibitors of PP1 can be used in a tissue- and developmental-specific manner to examine the developmental roles of PP1.

ABSTRACT Vpr and selected mutants were used in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae two-hybrid screen to identify cellular interactors. We found Vpr interacted with 14-3-3 proteins, a family regulating a multitude of proteins in the cell. Vpr mutant R80A, which is inactive in cell cycle arrest, did not interact with 14-3-3. 14-3-3 proteins regulate the G2/M transition by inactivating Cdc25C phosphatase via binding to the phosphorylated serine residue at position 216 of Cdc25C. 14-3-3 overexpression in human cells synergized with Vpr in the arrest of cell cycle. Vpr did not arrest efficiently cells not expressing 14-3-3σ. This indicated that a full complement of 14-3-3 proteins is necessary for optimal Vpr function on the cell cycle. Mutational analysis showed that the C-terminal portion of Vpr, known to harbor its cell cycle-arresting activity, bound directly to the C-terminal part of 14-3-3, outside of its phosphopeptide-binding pocket. Vpr expression shifted localization of the mutant Cdc25C S216A to the cytoplasm, indicating that Vpr promotes the association of 14-3-3 and Cdc25C, independently of the presence of serine 216. Immunoprecipitations of cell extracts indicated the presence of triple complexes (Vpr/14-3-3/Cdc25C). These results indicate that Vpr promotes cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase by facilitating association of 14-3-3 and Cdc25C independently of the latter's phosphorylation status.
