Schizosaccharomyces pombe Hsp90/Git10 Is Required for Glucose/cAMP Signaling

The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe senses environmental glucose through a cAMP-signaling pathway. Elevated cAMP levels activate protein kinase A (PKA) to inhibit transcription of genes involved in sexual development and gluconeogenesis, including the fbp1+ gene, which encodes fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. Glucose-mediated activation of PKA requires the function of nine glucose-insensitive transcription (git) genes, encoding adenylate cyclase, the PKA catalytic subunit, and seven “upstream” proteins required for glucose-triggered adenylate cyclase activation. We describe the cloning and characterization of the git10+ gene, which is identical to swo1+ and encodes the S. pombe Hsp90 chaperone protein. Glucose repression of fbp1+ transcription is impaired by both git10− and swo1− mutant alleles of the hsp90+ gene, as well as by chemical inhibition of Hsp90 activity and temperature stress to wild-type cells. Unlike the swo1− mutant alleles, the git10-201 allele supports cell growth at 37°, while severely reducing glucose repression of an fbp1-lacZ reporter, suggesting a separation-of-function defect. Sequence analyses of three swo1− alleles and the one git10− allele indicate that swo1− mutations alter core functional domains of Hsp90, while the git10− mutation affects the Hsp90 central domain involved in client protein binding. These results suggest that Hsp90 plays a specific role in the S. pombe glucose/cAMP pathway.
