Abstract


Two new classes of mutants containing recessive constitutive mutations, phoT and phoU, that affect the repressible acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae were isolated along with many previously known phoR mutants. These loci segregated independently from each other, from the phoS gene, and from another regulatory gene, phoD, that exerts positive control for acid phosphatase synthesis. The phoR and phoU mutations showed the same genetic behavior in the double mutants, which also contained the phoS or phoD mutation. In contrast, the phoT mutation could not suppress the phoS mutation, which caused a loss of enzyme activity. Many mutant alleles of phoR and phoU were found to be temperature sensitive (ts), whereas those of phoT were not. These ts mutants were constitutive at 35 C but severely repressible at 25 C. These facts strongly suggest that both the phoR and phoU genes are cooperatively concerned with the production of the repressor, whereas the phoT gene might be involved in another mechanism distinct from that in which phoR and phoU are involved. No single mutation of phoR, phoT, or phoU result in an enzyme level comparable to that of fully derepressed enzyme activities, and the temperature sensitivity of the ts phoR and ts phoU mutations in such combinations almost disappeared. In addition to these observations, since the ts phoR phoS and ts phoU phoS double mutants showed some enzyme synthesis at 25 C under derepressing conditions, a defect in the ts mutant repressors was strongly suggested, even at 25 C.
