    Description: Establishment of cohesion between sister chromatids is coupled to replication fork passage through an unknown mechanism. Here we report that TRF4, an evolutionarily conserved gene necessary for chromosome segregation, encodes a DNA polymerase with beta-polymerase-like properties. A double mutant in the redundant homologs, TRF4 and TRF5, is unable to complete S phase, whereas a trf4 single mutant completes a presumably defective S phase that results in a failure of cohesion between the replicated sister chromatids. This suggests that TRFs are a key link in the coordination between DNA replication and sister chromatid cohesion. Trf4 and Trf5 represent the fourth class of essential nuclear DNA polymerases (designated DNA polymerase kappa) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and probably in all eukaryotes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, Z -- Castano, I B -- De Las Penas, A -- Adams, C -- Christman, M F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Aug 4;289(5480):774-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology, University of Virginia, Box 441, Jordan Hall, 1300 Jefferson Park Avenue, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10926539" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The adherence of Candida glabrata to host cells is mediated, at least in part, by the EPA genes, a family of adhesins encoded at subtelomeric loci, where they are subject to transcriptional silencing. We show that normally silent EPA genes are expressed during murine urinary tract infection (UTI) and that the inducing signal is the limitation of nicotinic acid (NA), a precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). C. glabrata is an NA auxotroph, and NA-induced EPA expression is likely the result of a reduction in NAD+ availability for the NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase Sir2p. The adaptation of C. glabrata to the host, therefore, involves a loss of metabolic capacity and exploitation of the resulting auxotrophy to signal a particular host environment.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Domergue, Renee -- Castano, Irene -- De Las Penas, Alejandro -- Zupancic, Margaret -- Lockatell, Virginia -- Hebel, J Richard -- Johnson, David -- Cormack, Brendan P -- 2PO1DK49720/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01AI46223/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 May 6;308(5723):866-70.

    Description: The fungal pathogen Candida glabrata is a haploid asexual yeast. Candida glabrata contains orthologs of the genes that control mating and cell-type identity in other fungi, which encode putative transcription factors localized in the MAT locus in Saccharomyces cerevisiae or MTL in other fungi. Candida glabrata contains three copies of the CgMTL locus but only CgMTL1 correctly expresses the information encoded in it. CgMTL1 can encode the Cg a1 gene ( a information), or the Cg alpha1 and Cg alpha2 genes (alpha information). CgMTL2 contains an identical copy of the Cg a1 gene. CgMTL3 contains an identical copy of the Cg alpha1 gene but a longer variant of the Cg alpha2 gene that we termed Cg alpha3. In S. cerevisiae diploid cells, that express Sc a and Sc alpha information, Sc a1 and Sc alpha2 proteins form a heterodimer, which represses genes expressed only in haploid cells and some genes involved in stress response. We constructed C. glabrata strains that simultaneously express Cg a1 and Cg alpha2 or Cg a1 and Cg alpha3 genes. We did not find any phenotype in these strains when grown under a large variety of stress and nutritional conditions. However, we detected an interaction between Cg a1 and Cg alpha2 but not between Cg a1 and Cg alpha3 by Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation and co-immunoprecipitation assays.
