ThePEP7gene fromSaccharomyces cerevisiaeencodes a 59-kD hydrophilic polypeptide that is required for transport of soluble vacuolar hydrolase precursors from the TGN to the endosome. This study presents the results of a high-copy suppression analysis ofpep7-20mutant phenotypes. This analysis demonstrated that bothVPS45andPEP12are allele-specific high-copy suppressors ofpep7-20mutant phenotypes. Overexpression ofVPS45was able to completely suppress the Zn2+sensitivity and partially suppress the carboxypeptidase Y deficiency. Overexpression ofPEP12was able to do the same, but to a lesser extent. Vps45p and Pep12p are Sec1p and syntaxin (t-SNARE) homologues, respectively, and are also thought to function in transport between the TGN and endosome. Two additional vacuole pathway SNARE complex homologues, Vps33p (Sec1p) and Pth1p (syntaxin), when overexpressed, were unable to suppresspep7-20or any otherpep7allele, further supporting the specificity of the interactions ofpep7-20withPEP12andVPS45. Because several other vesicle docking/fusion reactions take place in the cell without discernible participation of Pep7p homologues, we suggest that Pep7p is a step-specific regulator of docking and/or fusion of TGN-derived transport vesicles onto the endosome.
