Cell cycle progression of Cryptococcus neoformans was studied for cells grown exponentially at 15°, 24°, and 30°C. Except for speed, cell cycle progression was similar. In particular, budding occurred relatively soon after initiation of DNA synthesis at 15°, 24°, and 30°C. After growth temperature was shifted from 15° to 30°C, cells were transiently arrested before initiation of DNA synthesis. Thus, similar to Saccharomyces erevisiae, “Start” was the main susceptible cell cycle controlling point in C. neoformans. However, after spontaneous release from arrest as above, cells were further arrested in the unbudded state. Thus, the timing of budding was delayed just before the G2 phase, or even until after entering the G2 phase, but it was also transient, and 5 h after the shift buds emerged relatively soon after initiation of DNA synthesis. Thus, C. neoformans cells can respond adaptively to mild stress by delaying budding. The existence of the second susceptible cell cycle control point, i.e., budding, appears to endow C. neoformans with a unique characteristic of stronger inhibition of multiplication than growth. A model of the C. neoformans cell cycle is also presented.
