Journal ArticleDOI
Fps1p controls the accumulation and release of the compatible solute glycerol in yeast osmoregulation.
Markus J. Tamás,K Luyten,K Luyten,F. C. W. Sutherland,Agustín Hernández,Jacobus Albertyn,Hadi Valadi,H Li,Bernard A. Prior,Stephanus G. Kilian,José Ramos,Lena Gustafsson,Johan M. Thevelein,Stefan Hohmann,Stefan Hohmann,Stefan Hohmann +15 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that yeast cells control glycerol accumulation in part via a regulated, Fps1p‐mediated export of glyceroled, which seems to be independent of the known yeast osmosensing HOG and PKC signalling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
A subgroup of plant aquaporins facilitate the bi-directional diffusion of As(OH) 3 and Sb(OH) 3 across membranes
Gerd Patrick Bienert,Gerd Patrick Bienert,Michael Thorsen,Manuela Désirée Schüssler,Henrik R. Nilsson,Annemarie Wagner,Markus J. Tamás,Thomas P. Jahn +7 more
TL;DR: This is the first molecular identification of plant As(III) transport systems and it is proposed that metalloid transport through NIPs is a conserved and ancient feature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The glycerol channel Fps1p mediates the uptake of arsenite and antimonite in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Robert W. Wysocki,Cyrille C. Chéry,Donata Wawrzycka,Marijn Van Hulle,Rita Cornelis,Johan M. Thevelein,Markus J. Tamás +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown by direct transport assays that arsenite uptake is mediated by Fps1p, and the first report describing a eukaryotic uptake mechanism for arsenite and antimonite and its involvement in metalloid tolerance is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy Metals and Metalloids As a Cause for Protein Misfolding and Aggregation
TL;DR: How heavy metals impede protein folding and promote protein aggregation is described, how cells regulate quality control systems to protect themselves from metal toxicity and how metals might contribute to protein misfolding disorders are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
How Saccharomyces cerevisiae copes with toxic metals and metalloids
TL;DR: A review of the molecular mechanisms that contribute to metal toxicity, detoxification and tolerance acquisition in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae focuses on the metals/metalloids arsenic, cadmium, antimony, mercury, chromium and selenium.
