Identification of a novel secreted glycoprotein of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae stimulated by heat shock

Yeast. 1992 Mar;8(3):157-69. doi: 10.1002/yea.320080302.

Abstract

A new secreted yeast glycoprotein with an Mr of about 400 kDa (gp400) has been found. The glycoprotein is an O-mannosylated oligomer, whose synthesis and export into culture medium are stimulated by heat shock. Intracellular transport of gp400 is carried out by membrane vesicles distinct from the known constitutive secretory vesicles. Immunological analysis revealed gp400 only in Saccharomyces species.
