Abstract

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells (strain A364A) during a shift-down from glucose to raffinose, a rapid reduction in the rate of RNA accumulation was observed whereas the rate of protein accumulation was unaffected for at least 2 h. Following the transition the percentage of unbudded cells slightly increased and the cell volume distribution showed a newly formed subpopulation of smaller cells. To study the effects of the shift-down on the protein synthesis pattern, total [35S]-methionine pulse-labeled extracts were fractionated by high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The synthesis of two classes of proteins (I and II) was modulated during the transitory state of growth: one positively, the other negatively. Two polypeptides of 57 kDa showed the most dramatic increase in synthesis during the shift-down. Also a heat-shock protein (HSP 256) appeared to be positively correlated to the shift-down transition
