The replacement of ergosterol with alternative sterols affects the physiological function of the yeast plasma membrane, including its H+-ATPase activity and resistance to antifungal drugs.

Sterols perform essential structural and signalling functions in living organisms. Ergosterol contributes to the fluidity, permeability, microdomain formation and functionality of proteins in the yeast membrane. In our study, desmosterol was the most successful at compensating for the lack of ergosterol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, besides stigmasterol and sitosterol. These three sterols supported cell growth without causing severe morphological defects, unlike cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol, lathosterol, cholestanol or lanosterol. Together with ergosterol, they were also able to bring the plasma membrane potential of hem1Δ cells closer to the level of the wild type. In addition, desmosterol conferred even higher thermotolerance to yeast than ergosterol. Some sterols counteracted the antifungal toxicity of polyenes, azoles and terbinafine to hem1Δ cells. Plant sterols (stigmasterol, sitosterol) and desmosterol ensured the glucose-induced activation of H+-ATPase in hem1Δ cells analogously to ergosterol, whereas cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol were less effective. Exogenous ergosterol, stigmasterol, sitosterol, desmosterol and cholesterol also improved the growth of Candida glabrata and Candida albicans in the presence of inhibitory concentration of fluconazole. The proper incorporation of exogenous sterols into the membrane with minimal adverse side effects on membrane functions was mainly influenced by the structure of the sterol acyl chain, and less by their ring structures.

Distinct regions of its first intracellular loop contribute to the proper localization, transport activity and substrate-affinity adjustment of the main yeast K+ importer Trk1.

Trk1 is the main K+ importer of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Its proper functioning enables yeast cells to grow in environments with micromolar amounts of K+. Although the structure of Trk1 has not been experimentally determined, the transporter is predicted to be composed of four MPM (transmembrane segment - pore loop - transmembrane segment) motifs which are connected by intracellular loops. Of those, in particular the first loop (IL1) is unique in its length; it forms more than half of the entire protein. The deletion of the majority of IL1 does not abolish the transport activity of Trk1. However IL1 is thought to be involved in the modulation of the transporter's functioning. In this work, we prepared a series of internally shortened versions of Trk1 that lacked various parts of IL1, and we studied their properties in S. cerevisiae cells without chromosomal copies of TRK genes. Using this approach, we were able to determine that both N- and C-border regions of IL1 are necessary for the proper localization of Trk1. Moreover, the N-border part of IL1 is also important for the functioning of Trk1, as its absence resulted in a decrease in the transporter's substrate affinity. In addition, in the internal part of IL1, we newly identified a stretch of amino-acid residues that are indispensable for retaining the transporter's maximum velocity, and another region whose deletion affected the ability of Trk1 to adjust its affinity in response to external levels of K+.

Lipid droplets control the negative effect of non-yeast sterols in membranes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae under hypoxic stress.

The effectivity of utilization of exogenous sterols in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae exposed to hypoxic stress is dependent on the sterol structure. The highly imported sterols include animal cholesterol or plant sitosterol, while ergosterol, typical of yeasts, is imported to a lesser extent. An elevated utilization of non-yeast sterols is associated with their high esterification and relocalization to lipid droplets (LDs). Here we present data showing that LDs and sterol esterification play a critical role in the regulation of the accumulation of non-yeast sterols in membranes. Failure to form LDs during anaerobic growth in media supplemented with cholesterol or sitosterol resulted in an extremely long lag phase, in contrast to normal growth in media with ergosterol or plant stigmasterol. Moreover, in hem1∆, which mimics anaerobiosis, neither cholesterol nor sitosterol supported the growth in an LD-less background. The incorporation of non-ergosterol sterols into the membranes affected fundamental membrane characteristics such as relative membrane potential, permeability, tolerance to osmotic stress and the formation of membrane domains. Our findings reveal that LDs assume an important role in scenarios wherein cells are dependent on the utilization of exogenous lipids, particularly under anoxia. Given the diverse lipid structures present in yeast niches, LDs fulfil a protective role, mitigating the risk of excessive accumulation of potentially toxic steroids and fatty acids in the membranes. Finally, we present a novel function for sterols in a model eukaryotic cell - alleviation of the lipotoxicity of unsaturated fatty acids.

The Hydrophilic C-terminus of Yeast Plasma-membrane Na+/H+ Antiporters Impacts Their Ability to Transport K.

Yeast plasma-membrane Na+/H+ antiporters (Nha/Sod) ensure the optimal intracellular level of alkali-metal cations and protons in cells. They are predicted to consist of 13 transmembrane segments (TMSs) and a large hydrophilic C-terminal cytoplasmic part with seven conserved domains. The substrate specificity, specifically the ability to recognize and transport K+ cations in addition to Na+ and Li+, differs among homologs. In this work, we reveal that the composition of the C-terminus impacts the ability of antiporters to transport particular cations. In the osmotolerant yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, the Sod2-22 antiporter only efficiently exports Na+ and Li+, but not K+. The introduction of a negative charge or removal of a positive charge in one of the C-terminal conserved regions (C3) enabled ZrSod2-22 to transport K+. The same mutations rescued the low level of activity and purely Li+ specificity of ZrSod2-22 with the A179T mutation in TMS6, suggesting a possible interaction between this TMS and the C-terminus. The truncation or replacement of the C-terminal part of ZrSod2-22 with the C-terminus of a K+-transporting Nha/Sod antiporter (Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nha1 or Z. rouxii Nha1) also resulted in an antiporter with the capacity to export K+. In addition, in ScNha1, the replacement of three positively charged arginine residues 539-541 in the C3 region with alanine caused its inability to provide cells with tolerance to Li+. All our results demonstrate that the physiological functions of yeast Nha/Sod antiporters, either in salt tolerance or in K+ homeostasis, depend on the composition of their C-terminal parts.

The Hrk1 kinase is a determinant of acetic acid tolerance in yeast by modulating H+ and K+ homeostasis.

Acetic acid-induced stress is a common challenge in natural environments and industrial bioprocesses, significantly affecting the growth and metabolic performance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The adaptive response and tolerance to this stress involves the activation of a complex network of molecular pathways. This study aims to delve deeper into these mechanisms in S. cerevisiae, particularly focusing on the role of the Hrk1 kinase. Hrk1 is a key determinant of acetic acid tolerance, belonging to the NPR/Hal family, whose members are implicated in the modulation of the activity of plasma membrane transporters that orchestrate nutrient uptake and ion homeostasis. The influence of Hrk1 on S. cerevisiae adaptation to acetic acid-induced stress was explored by employing a physiological approach based on previous phosphoproteomics analyses. The results from this study reflect the multifunctional roles of Hrk1 in maintaining proton and potassium homeostasis during different phases of acetic acid-stressed cultivation. Hrk1 is shown to play a role in the activation of plasma membrane H+-ATPase, maintaining pH homeostasis, and in the modulation of plasma membrane potential under acetic acid stressed cultivation. Potassium (K+) supplementation of the growth medium, particularly when provided at limiting concentrations, led to a notable improvement in acetic acid stress tolerance of the hrk1Δ strain. Moreover, abrogation of this kinase expression is shown to confer a physiological advantage to growth under K+ limitation also in the absence of acetic acid stress. The involvement of the alkali metal cation/H+ exchanger Nha1, another proposed molecular target of Hrk1, in improving yeast growth under K+ limitation or acetic acid stress, is proposed.

The second intracellular loop of the yeast Trk1 potassium transporter is involved in regulation of activity, and interaction with 14-3-3 proteins.

Potassium is an essential intracellular ion, and a sufficient intracellular concentration of it is crucial for many processes; therefore it is fundamental for cells to precisely regulate K+ uptake and efflux through the plasma membrane. The uniporter Trk1 is a key player in K+ acquisition in yeasts. The TRK1 gene is expressed at a low and stable level; thus the activity of the transporter needs to be regulated at a posttranslational level. S. cerevisiae Trk1 changes its activity and affinity for potassium ion quickly and according to both internal and external concentrations of K+, as well as the membrane potential. The molecular basis of these changes has not been elucidated, though phosphorylation is thought to play an important role. In this study, we examined the role of the second, short, and highly conserved intracellular hydrophilic loop of Trk1 (IL2), and identified two phosphorylable residues (Ser882 and Thr900) as very important for 1) the structure of the loop and consequently for the targeting of Trk1 to the plasma membrane, and 2) the upregulation of the transporter's activity reaching maximal affinity under low external K+ conditions. Moreover, we identified three residues (Thr155, Ser414, and Thr900) within the Trk1 protein as strong candidates for interaction with 14-3-3 regulatory proteins, and showed, in an in vitro experiment, that phosphorylated Thr900 of the IL2 indeed binds to both isoforms of yeast 14-3-3 proteins, Bmh1 and Bmh2.

Light-induced antifungal activity of nanoparticles with an encapsulated porphyrin photosensitizer.

The strong antifungal effect of sulfonated polystyrene nanoparticles (NPs) with an encapsulated tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) photosensitizer is reported here. TPP is activated by visible light, resulting in the generation of singlet oxygen. Its antifungal action is potentiated in the presence of potassium iodide, yielding I2/I3⁻, another antifungal species. The NPs exhibit no dark toxicity, but a broad spectrum of antifungal photodynamic effects. The efficiency of this rapid killing (on the order of minutes) depends on the concentration of TPP NPs, potassium iodide, yeast species and temperature. A strong antifungal activity of TPP NPs is demonstrated on eleven pathogenic and opportunistic pathogenic yeast species (six Candida species and other yeast species, including melanized Hortaea werneckii). The composition and architecture of yeast cell envelope structures clearly influence the efficacy of photodynamic therapy. Candida krusei is the most sensitive to photodynamic therapy. Despite expectations, melanin does not provide Hortaea cells with marked resistance compared to white yeast species. The kinetics of the interaction of NPs with yeast cells is also described. This study may inspire and promote the fabrication of a new type of antiseptic for various skin injuries in clinical medicine.

Heterologous expression reveals unique properties of Trk K+ importers from nonconventional biotechnologically relevant yeast species together with their potential to support Saccharomyces cerevisiae growth.

In the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Trk1 is the main K+ importer. It is involved in many important physiological processes, such as the maintenance of ion homeostasis, cell volume, intracellular pH, and plasma-membrane potential. The ScTrk1 protein can be of great interest to industry, as it was shown that changes in its activity influence ethanol production and tolerance in S. cerevisiae and also cell performance in the presence of organic acids or high ammonium under low K+ conditions. Nonconventional yeast species are attracting attention due to their unique properties and as a potential source of genes that encode proteins with unusual characteristics. In this work, we aimed to study and compare Trk proteins from Debaryomyces hansenii, Hortaea werneckii, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Yarrowia lipolytica, four biotechnologically relevant yeasts that tolerate various extreme environments. Heterologous expression in S. cerevisiae cells lacking the endogenous Trk importers revealed differences in the studied Trk proteins' abilities to support the growth of cells under various cultivation conditions such as low K+ or the presence of toxic cations, to reduce plasma-membrane potential or to take up Rb+ . Examination of the potential of Trks to support the stress resistance of S. cerevisiae wild-type strains showed that Y. lipolytica Trk1 is a promising tool for improving cell tolerance to both low K+ and high salt and that the overproduction of S. cerevisiae's own Trk1 was the most efficient at improving the growth of cells in the presence of highly toxic Li+ ions.

Allosteric links between the hydrophilic N-terminus and transmembrane core of human Na+ /H+ antiporter NHA2.

The human Na+ /H+ antiporter NHA2 (SLC9B2) transports Na+ or Li+ across the plasma membrane in exchange for protons, and is implicated in various pathologies. It is a 537 amino acids protein with an 82 residues long hydrophilic cytoplasmic N-terminus followed by a transmembrane part comprising 14 transmembrane helices. We optimized the functional expression of HsNHA2 in the plasma membrane of a salt-sensitive Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain and characterized in vivo a set of mutated or truncated versions of HsNHA2 in terms of their substrate specificity, transport activity, localization, and protein stability. We identified a highly conserved proline 246, located in the core of the protein, as being crucial for ion selectivity. The replacement of P246 with serine or threonine resulted in antiporters with altered substrate specificity that were not only highly active at acidic pH 4.0 (like the native antiporter), but also at neutral pH. P246T/S versions also exhibited increased resistance to the HsNHA2-specific inhibitor phloretin. We experimentally proved that a putative salt bridge between E215 and R432 is important for antiporter function, but also structural integrity. Truncations of the first 50-70 residues of the N-terminus doubled the transport activity of HsNHA2, while changes in the charge at positions E47, E56, K57, or K58 decreased the antiporter's transport activity. Thus, the hydrophilic N-terminal part of the protein appears to allosterically auto-inhibit cation transport of HsNHA2. Our data also show this in vivo approach to be useful for a rapid screening of SNP's effect on HsNHA2 activity.

Yeast Trk1 Potassium Transporter Gradually Changes Its Affinity in Response to Both External and Internal Signals.

Yeasts need a high intracellular concentration of potassium to grow. The main K+ uptake system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the Trk1 transporter, a complex protein with four MPM helical membrane motifs. Trk1 has been shown to exist in low- or high-affinity modes, which reflect the availability of potassium in the environment. However, when and how the affinity changes, and whether the potassium availability is the only signal for the affinity switch, remains unknown. Here, we characterize the Trk1 kinetic parameters under various conditions and find that Trk1's KT and Vmax change gradually. This gliding adjustment is rapid and precisely reflects the changes in the intracellular potassium content and membrane potential. A detailed characterization of the specific mutations in the P-helices of the MPM segments reveals that the presence of proline in the P-helix of the second and third MPM domain (F820P and L949P) does not affect the function of Trk1 in general, but rather specifically prevents the transporter's transition to a high-affinity state. The analogous mutations in the two remaining MPM domains (L81P and L1115P) result in a mislocalized and inactive protein, highlighting the importance of the first and fourth P-helices in proper Trk1 folding and activity at the plasma membrane.

Minority potassium-uptake system Trk2 has a crucial role in yeast survival of glucose-induced cell death.

The existence of programmed cell death in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been reported for many years. Glucose induces the death of S. cerevisiae in the absence of additional nutrients within a few hours, and the absence of active potassium uptake makes cells highly sensitive to this process. S. cerevisiae cells possess two transporters, Trk1 and Trk2, which ensure a high intracellular concentration of potassium, necessary for many physiological processes. Trk1 is the major system responsible for potassium acquisition in growing and dividing cells. The contribution of Trk2 to potassium uptake in growing cells is almost negligible, but Trk2 becomes crucial for stationary cells for their survival of some stresses, e.g. anhydrobiosis. As a new finding, we show that both Trk systems contribute to the relative thermotolerance of S. cerevisiae BY4741. Our results also demonstrate that Trk2 is much more important for the cell survival of glucose-induced cell death than Trk1, and that stationary cells deficient in active potassium uptake lose their ATP stocks more rapidly than cells with functional Trk systems. This is probably due to the upregulated activity of plasma-membrane Pma1 H+-ATPase, and consequently, it is the reason why these cells die earlier than cells with functional active potassium uptake.

Anhydrobiosis in yeast: role of cortical endoplasmic reticulum protein Ist2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells during dehydration and subsequent rehydration.

Two Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, BY4741 and BY4741-derived strain lacking the IST2 gene (ist2Δ), were used to characterise the possible role of cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein Ist2 upon cell dehydration and subsequent rehydration. For the first time, we show that not only protein components of the plasma membrane (PM), but also at least one ER membrane protein (Ist2) play an important role in the maintenance of the viability of yeast cells during dehydration and subsequent rehydration. The low viability of the mutant strain ist2∆ upon dehydration-rehydration stress was related to the lack of Ist2 protein in the ER. We revealed that the PM of ist2∆ strain is not able to completely restore its molecular organisation during reactivation from the state of anhydrobiosis. As the result, the permeability of the PM remains high regardless of the type of reactivation (rapid or gradual rehydration). We conclude that ER protein Ist2 plays an important role in ensuring the stability of molecular organisation and functionality of the PM during dehydration-rehydration stress. These results indicate an important role of ER-PM interactions during cells transition into the state of anhydrobiosis and the subsequent restoration of their physiological activities.

K+-specific importers Trk1 and Trk2 play different roles in Ca2+ homeostasis and signalling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.

The maintenance of K+ and Ca2+ homeostasis is crucial for many cellular functions. Potassium is accumulated in cells at high concentrations, while the cytosolic level of calcium, to ensure its signalling function, is kept at low levels and transiently increases in response to stresses. We examined Ca2+ homeostasis and Ca2+ signalling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains lacking plasma-membrane K+ influx (Trk1 and Trk2) or efflux (Tok1, Nha1 and Ena1-5) systems. The lack of K+ exporters slightly increased the cytosolic Ca2+, but did not alter the Ca2+ tolerance or Ca2+-stress response. In contrast, the K+-importers Trk1 and Trk2 play important and distinct roles in the maintenance of Ca2+ homeostasis. The presence of Trk1 was vital mainly for the growth of cells in the presence of high extracellular Ca2+, whilst the lack of Trk2 doubled steady-state intracellular Ca2+ levels. The absence of both K+ importers highly increased the Ca2+ response to osmotic or CaCl2 stresses and altered the balance between Ca2+ flux from external media and intracellular compartments. In addition, we found Trk2 to be important for the tolerance to high KCl and hygromycin B in cells growing on minimal media. All the data describe new interconnections between potassium and calcium homeostasis in S. cerevisiae.

Regulation and activity of CaTrk1, CaAcu1 and CaHak1, the three plasma membrane potassium transporters in Candida albicans.

Wild-type cells of Candida albicans, the most common human fungal pathogen, are able to grow at very low micromolar concentrations of potassium in the external milieu. One of the reasons behind that behaviour is the existence of three different types of K+ transporters in their plasma membrane: Trk1, Acu1 and Hak1. This work shows that the transporters are very differently regulated at the transcriptional level upon exposure to saline stress, pH alterations or K+ starvation. We propose that different transporters take the lead in the diverse environmental conditions, Trk1 being the "house-keeping" one, and Acu1/Hak1 dominating upon K+ limiting conditions. Heterologous expression of the genes coding for the three transporters in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain lacking its endogenous potassium transporters showed that all of them mediated cation transport but with very different efficiencies. Moreover, expression of the transporters in S. cerevisiae also affected other physiological characteristics such as sodium and lithium tolerance, membrane potential or intracellular pH, being, in general, CaTrk1 the most effective in keeping these parameters close to the usual wild-type physiological levels.

C5 conserved region of hydrophilic C-terminal part of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nha1 antiporter determines its requirement of Erv14 COPII cargo receptor for plasma-membrane targeting.

Erv14, a conserved cargo receptor of COPII vesicles, helps the proper trafficking of many but not all transporters to the yeast plasma membrane, for example, three out of five alkali-metal-cation transporters in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Among them, the Nha1 cation/proton antiporter, which participates in cell cation and pH homeostasis, is a large membrane protein (985 aa) possessing a long hydrophilic C-terminus (552 aa) containing six conserved regions (C1-C6) with unknown function. A short Nha1 version, lacking almost the entire C-terminus, still binds to Erv14 but does not need it to be targeted to the plasma membrane. Comparing the localization and function of ScNha1 variants shortened at its C-terminus in cells with or without Erv14 reveals that only ScNha1 versions possessing the complete C5 region are dependent on Erv14. In addition, our broad evolutionary conservation analysis of fungal Na+ /H+ antiporters identified new conserved regions in their C-termini, and our experiments newly show C5 and other, so far unknown, regions of the C-terminus, to be involved in the functionality and substrate specificity of ScNha1. Taken together, our results reveal that also relatively small hydrophilic parts of some yeast membrane proteins underlie their need to interact with the Erv14 cargo receptor.

Styrylpyridinium Derivatives as New Potent Antifungal Drugs and Fluorescence Probes.

The incidence of Candida glabrata infections increases every year due to its higher resistance to commonly used antifungal drugs. We characterized the antifungal mechanism of action of eight new styrylpyridinium derivatives, with various N-alkyl chains (-C6H13, -C8H17, -C10H21, -C12H25) and different substituents, on C. glabrata strains differing in their drug resistance due to the presence or absence of two major drug-efflux pumps. We found that the tested styrylpyridinium compounds affected the growth of C. glabrata cells in a compound- and strain-dependent manner, and apparently they were substrates of CgCdr1 and CgCdr2 pumps. Further, we determined the impact of the tested compounds on plasma membrane integrity. The ability to cause damage to a plasma membrane depended on the compound, its concentration and the presence of efflux pumps, and corresponded well with the results of growth and survival tests. We also tested possible synergism with three types of known antifungal drugs. Though we did not observe any synergism with azole drugs, styrylpyridinium compounds 5 and 6 together with FK506 demonstrated excellent antifungal properties, whereas compounds 2, 3, 5, and 6 exhibited a significant synergistic effect in combination with terbinafine. Based on our results, derivatives 2 and 6 turned out to be the most promising antifungal drugs. Moreover, compound 6 was not only able to effectively permeabilize the yeast plasma membrane, but also exhibited significant synergism with FK506 and terbinafine. Finally, we also characterized the spectroscopic properties of the tested styrylpyridinium compounds. We measured their absorption and fluorescence spectra, determined their localization in yeast cells and found that their fluorescence characteristics differ from the properties of current commercial vacuolar styrylpyridinium markers and allow multi-color staining. Compounds 1, 3, 7, and 8 were able to accumulate in plasma and vacuolar membranes, and compounds 2, 5, and 6 stained the whole interior of dead cells. In summary, of the eight tested compounds, compound 6 is the most promising antifungal drug, compound 8, due to its minimal toxicity, is the best candidate for a new vacuolar-membrane probe or new benchmark substrate of C. glabrata Cdr pumps, and derivative 5 for a new vital dye.

A new pH sensor localized in the Golgi apparatus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae reveals unexpected roles of Vph1p and Stv1p isoforms.

The gradual acidification of the secretory pathway is conserved and extremely important for eukaryotic cells, but until now there was no pH sensor available to monitor the pH of the early Golgi apparatus in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Therefore, we developed a pHluorin-based sensor for in vivo measurements in the lumen of the Golgi. By using this new tool we show that the cis- and medial-Golgi pH is equal to 6.6-6.7 in wild type cells during exponential phase. As expected, V-ATPase inactivation results in a near neutral Golgi pH. We also uncover that surprisingly Vph1p isoform of the V-ATPase is prevalent to Stv1p for Golgi acidification. Additionally, we observe that during changes of the cytosolic pH, the Golgi pH is kept relatively stable, mainly thanks to the V-ATPase. Eventually, this new probe will allow to better understand the mechanisms involved in the acidification and the pH control within the secretory pathway.

Squalene lipotoxicity in a lipid droplet-less yeast mutant is linked to plasma membrane dysfunction.

Squalene is a naturally occurring triterpene with wide industrial applications. Due to limited natural resources, production of this valuable lipid in yeast is of high commercial relevance. Typically low levels of squalene in yeast can be significantly increased by specific cultivation conditions or genetic modifications. Under normal conditions, excess squalene is stored in lipid droplets (LD), while in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant unable to form LD it is distributed to cellular membranes. We present here the evidence that squalene accumulation in this LD-less mutant treated with squalene monooxygenase inhibitor terbinafine induces growth defects and loss of viability. We show that plasma membrane malfunction is involved in squalene toxicity. We have found that subinhibitory concentrations of terbinafine increased the sensitivity of LD-less mutant to several membrane-active substances. Furthermore, squalene accumulation in terbinafine-treated LD-less cells disturbed the maintenance of membrane potential and increased plasma membrane permeability to rhodamine 6G. LD-less cells treated with terbinafine showed also high sensitivity to osmotic stress. To confirm the causal relationship between squalene accumulation, loss of viability and impaired plasma membrane functions we treated LD-less cells simultaneously with terbinafine and squalene synthase inhibitor zaragozic acid. Reduction of squalene levels by zaragozic acid improved cell growth and viability and decreased plasma membrane permeability to rhodamine 6G in terbinafine-treated LD-less cells. Our results support the hypothesis that plasma membrane malfunction is involved in the mechanisms of squalene lipotoxicity in yeast cells with defective lipid storage.
