FIGURE 2:

Ectopic targeting of the exocyst to mitochondria led to secretion defects. (A) Growth of cells expressing Tom20-mCherry–tagged exocyst subunits. The same amount of yeast cells was serially diluted at 1:10 ratio and then spotted on SC plates at 25°C. Except for Tom20-mCherry-Exo70, yeast cells expressing Tom20-mCherry–tagged exocyst subunits grew more slowly than control cells expressing Tom20-mCherry. (B) The growth defect of Tom20-mCherry-Sec3 cells can be suppressed by high-copy plasmids expressing either SEC1 or SEC4 gene. (C) Bgl2p secretion in cells expressing Tom20-mCherry–tagged exocyst subunits. Except for Tom20-mCherry-Exo70, yeast cells expressing Tom20-mCherry–tagged exocyst subunits showed accumulation of Bgl2p in cells (Internal) detected by Western blotting. Molecular weights (in kilodaltons) are indicated to the left. Alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh1p) was used as a loading control. (D) Except for Tom20-mCherry-Exo70, yeast cells expressing Tom20-mCherry–tagged exocyst subunits were defective in invertase secretion at 25°C. The percentage of external (secreted) relative to the total invertase is presented. Error bars represent SD (n = 3). *p < 0.01 as compared with cells expressing Tom20-mCherry.
