increased sensitivity (10-100fold) of the FUM1 mutant strain to ionizing radiation, to the presence of hydroxyurea and to double-strand breaks when compared to the wild-type. Cytosolic absence of fumarase in yeast with a DELTAfum1 chromosomal deletion can be complemented by human fumarase. Fumaric acid (25 mM) complements the phenotype of fumarase cytosolic absence. FUM1 mutant strain sensitivity to double-strand breaks can be complemented by catalytically active pDELTAMTS-FUM1 but not by the corresponding H153R mutant
cytosolic fumarase plays a role in the cellular response to double-strand breaks. Fumarase enzymatic activity is required for its DNA damage protective function. Fumarase activity is also required for the extra-mitochondrial function of fumarase
metabolites of the glyoxylate shunt act as nanosensors for fumarase subcellular targeting and distribution. Glyoxylate shunt deletion mutants exhibit an altered fumarase dual distribution. Expression levels of Cit2 affect dual targeting of fumarase. Amount of cytosolic fumarase is drastically reduced in the DELTAcit2 strain, when compared with the wild-type strain. Proportion of fumarase activity is very low in the cytosolic versus mitochondrial fractions obtained from DELTAcit2 and wild-type plus pCit2 strains when compared with the wild-type or DELTAcit2 plus pCit2 strains, in which the fumarase activity is divided equally between the corresponding subcellular fractions
is catalytically inactive since it does not complement a fumarase knockout strain with respect to its TCA cycle function. Yeast strains expressing the mutant protein do not grow on glycerol as the sole energy and carbon source

mitochondrially targeted fumarase harboring a tobacco etch virus protease recognition sequence is efficiently cleaved by the mitochondrial but not by the cytosolic tobacco etch virus protease. Fumarase is readily cleaved by cytosolic tobacco etch virus when its import into mitochondria is slowed down by either disrupting the activity of the TOMcomplex, lowering the growth temperature, or reducing the inner membrane electrochemical potential
level of fumarase mRNA is upregulated both in the DELTacit2 and wild-type plus pCit2 strains. Approximately 2fold higher Fum1 mRNA level in a DELTAcit2 strain when compared with the wild-type strain. Significant increase in fumarase expression and cellular enzymatic activity in the glyoxylate deletion strains: DELTAmls1, DELTAicl1, DELTAaco1and DELTAcit2. Succinic acid in the growth medium affects fumarase dual distribution, succinic acid directly interacts with fumarase and slows down its folding thereby causing more fumarase to be fully imported into mitochondria
Mitochondrial import of human and yeast fumarase in live mammalian cells: retrograde translocation of the yeast enzyme is mainly caused by its poor targeting sequence
