Thermosensitive mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, affected in the endoplasmic, reticulum (ER) located glycosylation, i.e. in Dol-P-Man synthase (dpm 1), in beta-1,4 mannosyl transferase (alg1) and in alpha-1,3 mannosyltransferase (alg2), were used to assess the role of GDP-Man availability for the synthesis of dolichol-linked saccharides. The mutants were transformed with the yeast gene MPG1 (PSA1/VIG9) encoding GDP-Man pyrophosphorylase catalyzing the final step of GDP-Man formation. We found that overexpression of MPG1 allows growth at non-permissive temperature and leads to an increase in the cellular content of GDP-Man. In the alg1 and alg2 mutants, complemented with MPG1 gene, N-glycosylation of invertase was in part restored, to a degree comparable to that of the wild-type control. In the dpm1 mutant, the glycosylation reactions that depend on the formation of Dol-P-Man, i.e. elongation of Man(5)GlcNAc(2)-PP-Dol, O-mannosylation of chitinase and synthesis of GPI anchor were normal when MPG1 was overexpressed. Our data indicate that an increased level of GDP-Man is able to correct defects in mannosylation reactions ascribed to the ER and to the Golgi. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
