摘要


The Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome sequencing project identified an open reading frame (O74869 and O74912, named Nic1p in the present study) with significant similarity to members of a family of bacterial transition metal permeases. These uptake systems transport Ni(2+) ion with extremely high affinity across the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane, but they differ in selectivity toward divalent transition metal cations. An S. pombe mutant harboring an interrupted nic1 allele (nic1-1) was strongly impaired in (63)Ni(2+) uptake in the presence of a high molar ratio of Mg(2+) relative to Ni(2+), conditions that reflect the natural situation. Under these conditions, the nic1-1 mutant contained only background activities of the nickel-dependent cytoplasmic enzyme urease and could not catabolize urea. Among a series of divalent transition metal cations tested (Cd(2+), Co(2+), Cu(2+), Mn(2+), and Zn(2+)), only Co(2+) caused considerable inhibition of Nic1p-mediated Ni(2+) uptake. On the other hand, experiments with (57)Co(2+) (at nm concentrations) did not show significant differences in Co(2+) uptake between the nic1-1 mutant and the parental strain. Our data suggest that Nic1p acts as a plasma-membrane nickel transporter in fission yeast, a finding that invites searches for isologous counterparts in higher eukaryotes.
