ABSTRACT
Deep-sea organisms are subjected to extreme conditions; therefore, understanding their adaptive strategies is crucial. We utilize Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model to investigate pressure-dependent protein regulation and piezo-adaptation. Using yeast deletion library analysis, we identified 6 poorly characterized genes that are crucial for high-pressure growth, forming novel functional modules associated with cell growth. In this study, we aimed to unravel the molecular mechanisms of high-pressure adaptation in S. cerevisiae, focusing on the role of MTC6. MTC6, the gene encoding the novel glycoprotein Mtc6/Ehg2, was found to stabilize tryptophan permease Tat2, ensuring efficient tryptophan uptake and growth under high pressure at 25 MPa. The loss of MTC6 led to promoted vacuolar degradation of Tat2, depending on the Rsp5-Bul1 ubiquitin ligase complex. These findings enhance our understanding of deep-sea adaptations and stress biology, with broad implications for biotechnology, environmental microbiology, and evolutionary insights across species.
