The unicellular green alga Chlorella kessleri can induce monosaccharide-H+
symport catalyzing the energy-dependent transport of D-glucose (D-Glc) and
several other pentoses and hexoses across the plasmalemma. The gene coding
for the inducible HUP1 monosaccharide-H+ symporter has been cloned and the
protein has been characterized previously. The data presented in this paper
demonstrate that the presence of the HUP1 gene product alone is not
sufficient to cover the broad substrate specificity of monosaccharide
transport in induced Chlorella cells. Two other HUP genes are shown to be
co-induced in Chlorella in response to D-Glc in the medium. The cloning of
HUP2 and HUP3 cDNA and genomic sequences is described, both being very
homologous to HUP1. Modification of the 5[prime] untranslated sequences of
full-length cDNA clones of HUP2 and HUP3 allowed the functional expression
of both transporters in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. HUP2 was shown to be a
galactose-H+ symporter, whereas the substrate specificity of the HUP3 gene
product is very similar to that of the HUP1 protein. However, HUP3 does not
seem to be induced to high levels in Glc-treated Chlorella cells. Results
are also presented proving that the product of the HUP1 gene is localized
in the plasmalemma of D-Glc-induced Chlorella cells and is absent in plasma
membranes of noninduced cells. Incubation of thin sections of Chlorella
cells with anti-HUP1 antibodies and a fluorescence-labeled, second antibody
yielded a ring of fluorescence on the surface of Glc-induced Chlorella
cells.
