From the We have previously shown that mutations in the
Saccharomyces cerevisiae BSD2 gene suppress oxidative
damage in cells lacking superoxide dismutase and also lead to
hyperaccumulation of copper ions. We demonstrate here that
bsd2 mutant cells additionally accumulate high levels of
cadmium and cobalt. By biochemical fractionation and immunofluorescence
microscopy, BSD2 exhibited localization to the endoplasmic reticulum,
suggesting that BSD2 acts at a distance to inhibit metal uptake from
the growth medium. This BSD2 control of ion transport occurs
independently of the CTR1 and FET4 metal transport systems. Genetic
suppressor analysis revealed that hyperaccumulation of copper and
cadmium in bsd2 mutants is mediated through
SMF1, previously shown to encode a plasma membrane
transporter for manganese. A nonsense mutation removing the
carboxyl-terminal hydrophobic domain of SMF1 was found to mimic a
smf1 gene deletion by eliminating the copper and cadmium
toxicity of bsd2 mutants and also by precluding the
bsd2 suppression of superoxide dismutase deficiency.
However, inactivation of SMF1 did not eliminate the
elevated cobalt levels in bsd2 mutants. Instead, this
cobalt accumulation was found to be specifically mediated through the
SMF1 homologue, SMF2. Hence, BSD2 prevents
metal hyperaccumulation by exerting negative control over the SMF1 and
SMF2 metal transport systems.
