Gene Description

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 3 (Tdh3, YGR192C) is one of three paralogous NAD+-dependent phosphorylating glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases (GAPDH, EC 1.2.1.12; TDH1, TDH2, TDH3) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These homotetrameric enzymes catalyse the reversible oxidative phosphorylation of D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate with reduction of NAD+ to NADH, the sixth step of glycolysis and an obligatory step of gluconeogenesis. Tdh3 is the dominant isoform, supplying about 50-60% of cellular GAPDH activity although its homotetramer has a 2-3-fold lower apparent Vmax than Tdh2, and it is a highly abundant cytosolic protein. Besides its cytosolic glycolytic role, Tdh3 has experimentally supported moonlighting activities: it binds RNA (including mitochondrial mRNAs and FAS1 mRNA), buffers and allocates labile cytosolic heme to the heme-dependent transcription factor Hap1, and is S-nitrosated during oxidative stress-induced cell death. Tdh3 is also detected in the cell wall, nucleus and in association with mitochondria.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Using APEX2 targeted to FAS1 mRNA, Blank/Polymenis and colleagues identified Tdh3 as a FAS1 mRNA-binding protein (preferentially late in the cell cycle) required for cell-cycle-dependent changes in Fas1 levels.
Reason: Moonlighting mRNA binding; non-core.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:37792491
Lastly, while Tdh3p interacted with the FAS1 mRNA preferentially late in the cell cycle, all other proteins did so in the G1 phase (Figure 3E).
PMID:37792491
Our results highlight the role of a key glycolytic enzyme (Tdh3p) through its moonlighting RNA-binding properties in the expression of another enzyme (Fas1p) involved in fatty acid biosynthesis.

Summary: PAINT IBA from GAPDH node PTN000089475, seeded by the three yeast TDH paralogs among other experimentally characterised GAPDHs.

Summary: Hanna et al. used genetically encoded heme sensors: tdh3 deletion (but not tdh1 or tdh2) raises labile cytosolic heme ~4-fold and reduces activity of the nuclear heme-dependent factor Hap1, indicating Tdh3 buffers and allocates labile heme. 'Heme transport' (intracellular movement) captures this chaperone-like allocation loosely.
Reason: Experimentally supported moonlighting role in heme allocation; secondary to glycolysis.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:27247412
In total, our data indicate GAPDH is involved in buffering cytosolic heme and regulates the activity of Hap1p, presumably by acting as a source for heme.

MODIFY
Summary: YeastPathways RCA (GLYCOLYSIS) to glycolytic process through glucose-6-phosphate, now obsolete and replaced by glycolysis (GO:0006096). TDH3 does act in glycolysis.
Reason: Obsolete term; use replaced_by GO:0006096.
Proposed replacements: glycolysis

NO-mediated apoptosis in yeast.
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Almeida et al.: blocking NO synthesis decreases GAPDH S-nitrosation and intracellular ROS accumulation; the curator's IMP links TDH3 loss to altered ROS levels. Likely an indirect consequence of redox/metabolic perturbation rather than a dedicated ROS-metabolising activity.
Reason: Indirect/pleiotropic effect; non-core.

Blockage of NO synthesis with Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester leads to a decrease of GAPDH S-nitrosation and of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, increasing survival

Glycolytic Proteins Interact With Intracellular Melatonin in...
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: Morcillo-Parra et al. immunopurified melatonin-associated proteins from fermenting cells with anti-melatonin IgG beads and identified Tdh1/2/3 by MS in one gel band. This is an affinity co-purification without a defined binding site, stoichiometry or physiological effect on TDH3.
Reason: Affinity co-purification of abundant GAPDH paralogs is weak support for a specific melatonin-binding activity; the experimental report is retained but likely overstates a physiologic molecular function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:31708896
Surprisingly, most of the proteins identified participate in the glycolytic pathway: pyruvate kinase 1 (Pyk2p; band a), enolase (Eno1p, Eno2p; band c), fructose biphosphate aldolase (Fba1p; band d), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Tdh1p, Tdh2p, Tdh3p; band f).
PMID:31708896
We subsequently performed immunopurification melatonin-IgG-Dynabeads and identified a set of proteins that interact with melatonin inside the cell.

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: ARBA rule propagating melatonin binding to GAPDHs, derived from a single affinity pull-down study in yeast that did identify this protein; physiological significance is unknown.
Reason: ARBA propagates the same weak affinity-capture result as a molecular-function assertion; the interaction lacks a binding constant, site, or demonstrated physiologic effect.

Core Functions

NAD+-dependent phosphorylating glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalysing the reversible conversion of D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + Pi + NAD+ to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + NADH in the cytosol, operating in the glycolytic direction on glucose and the gluconeogenic direction on non-fermentable carbon sources.

    The contribution of the TDH1, TDH2, and TDH3 gene products to the total glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in wild type cells is 10-15, 25-30, and 50-60%, respectively

    Western immunoblot analysis of cell wall extracts and cytosol showed that Tdh2 and Tdh3 polypeptides are present in the cell wall, as well as in the cytosol, of exponentially growing cells

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Are the heme-buffering and RNA-binding activities of Tdh3 mutually exclusive with catalysis (e.g. via NAD+ site occupancy or S-nitrosation of the catalytic cysteine)?

Q: Why does tdh3 but not tdh1 or tdh2 deletion affect labile heme pools: abundance only, or isoform-specific sequence features?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Replace TDH3 with TDH2 coding sequence at the TDH3 locus and measure labile heme (heme sensor) and Hap1 reporter activity, to separate dosage from isoform-specific heme handling.
