Popis: | Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress causes the ER-resident transmembrane protein Ire1 to self-associate, leading to the formation of large oligomeric clusters. In yeast cells, this induces strong unfolded protein response (UPR) through splicing of HAC1 mRNA. Here, we demonstrate that highly ER-stressed yeast cells exhibited poor Ire1 clustering in the presence of the actin-disrupting agent latrunculin-A. Under these conditions, Ire1 may form smaller oligomers because latrunculin-A only partially diminished the Ire1-mediated splicing of HAC1 mRNA. Ire1 cluster formation was also impaired by deletion of the type-II myosin gene MYO1 or SAC6, which encodes the actin-bundling protein fimbrin. Finally, we demonstrated that Ire1 clusters are predominantly located on or near actin filaments. Therefore, we propose that actin filaments play an important role in ER stress-induced clustering of Ire1. |
