Fold changes of Sdh4, Pdc5, Gpm2 and Gpm3 differ between this study and the SRM-based study

(Picotti et al., 2009) (Figure 2). Comparison of fold changes of these proteins with other proteomic

(Gillet et al., 2012) and transcriptomic (DeRisi et al., 1997) data shows better concordance with our

results. The changes observed in Sdh4, Gpm2 and Gpm3 fit the trend in transcript levels reported by

DeRisi et al (1997), whereas the increase in Pdc5 matches the observations of Gillet et al. (2012) in

a study where the same samples used in the SRM study (Picotti et al. 2009) were re-analyzed using

SWATH. Gpm2 and Gpm3 were not quantified in the SWATH-based study (Gillet et al., 2012).

Data from the SRM study and transcript data are represented after time alignment as described by

Picotti et al. (2009). Fold changes are calculated relative to the first time point from the SRM study

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCUSSION

Metabolic fate of TG lipids mobilized during the entry into the post-diauxic phase

Flux balance analysis demonstrated that growth upon exit from the diauxic shift and entry into the

post-diauxic phase cannot be supported by only uptake and oxidation of ethanol. A minimum TG

mobilization of 2.6 µmol·g-1

·h-1

was predicted to be required (Table S4). Under this condition,

100% of the mobilized TG lipids were used for energy production via β-oxidation. In comparison,

for fixed growth behavior (and fixed ethanol uptake), maximizing the TG mobilization showed that

TG lipids could also be used for additional metabolic purposes (e.g. production of the other

metabolites). Under this condition at least 44% of the mobilized TG lipids are used for energy

production. TG mobilization values and flux values of all other reactions are presented in Table S4.

We note that, since the experiment was carried out in YPD medium and the modeling assumes a

synthetic complete medium, the flux balance analysis may overestimate the proportion of mobilized

TG lipids used for energy production as other components in the YPD medium may also contribute.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES

Glucose and ethanol determination

The concentration of glucose in the medium was determined using a commercially available kit

(LabAssay Glucose; Wako Chemicals). The ethanol assay was based on Cornell et al. (1983).

Briefly, samples were deproteinized in 1.6% (w/v) HClO4 (final concentration), and 50 µl of diluted

(1/30, v/v) sample were mixed with 1.4 ml of reaction buffer (315 mM Tris/210 mM lysine, pH 9.7,

1.82 mM NAD+). The formation of NADH, which is proportional to the amount of ethanol present,

was followed by measuring the absorbance (340 nm) before and 10 min after the addition of 100 µg

of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (Sigma).

Yeast lysis and protein digestion

Yeast pellets (~25 ODu) were resuspended in 600 µl of 20 mM triethylammonium bicarbonate

buffer (TEAB) containing a tablet of EDTA-free complete-mini protease inhibitors (Roche

Diagnostics) per 10 ml of TEAB. Acid-washed glass beads (~350 µl) were added to the yeast

suspension and cells were lysed at 4ºC using a cell disruptor by repeated bead beating for 3 cycles

of 5 min disruption followed by 1 min of rest. The bottom of the tube was pierced, the tube was

placed on a new tube and centrifuged (500 g, 1 min, 4ºC) to collect the lysate. SDS and DTT were

then added to the yeast lysate to a final concentration of 4% (w/v) and 100 mM, respectively, and

the sample was incubated for 10 min at 80ºC. Finally, the samples were sonicated in 6 cycles

consisting of 5 s sonication followed by a 5 s break and centrifuged (14000 g, 5 min). The

supernatant was stored in a low protein binding tube at -80ºC until subsequent protein digestion.

The protein concentration in the protein extracts was determined by amino acid analysis (AAA)

using a Biochrom 31 amino acid analyzer (Biochrom) as described (Pannee et al., 2013). One

hundred µg of protein were incubated for 10 min at 80ºC upon addition of fresh DTT (50 mM, final

concentration) and subsequently digested using the SF-ISD:SDC protocol (Leon et al., 2013).

Briefly, denatured proteins were mixed with 600 µl of 8 M urea in 20 mM TEAB and loaded in two

steps on spin filters (Vivacon 500, 30 KD; Sartorius Stedim): half of the volume was added to the

filter unit and centrifuged (12000 g, 20 min), then 200 µl of 8 M urea in 20 mM TEAB were added

to the filter and centrifuged under the same conditions. The remaining sample volume was loaded

as described above, followed by 2 washes with 200 µl of 8 M urea in 20 mM TEAB. The proteins

were then alkylated by adding 100 µl of 50 mM iodoacetamide (IAA) in 20 mM TEAB containing

0.5% w/v sodium deoxycholate (SDC) to the filter unit and incubating the sample for 20 min in the

dark. IAA was then discarded by centrifugation under the same conditions. The filter unit was

washed twice with 100 µl of 0.5% w/v SDC in 20 mM TEAB. Fifty µl of trypsin (Promega) in

0.5% w/v SDC, 20 mM TEAB (1:100 w/w enzyme to protein) were added and the filter unit was

incubated at 37ºC overnight. The filter unit was transferred to a fresh collection tube and

centrifuged (14000 g, 15 min). Fifty µl of 0.5% w/v SDC in 20 mM TEAB were added to the filter

unit and centrifuged under the same conditions to improve peptide recovery. One hundred µl of

ethyl acetate and 5 µl of 20% v/v TFA were subsequently added to the peptide solution. After

centrifugation (14000 g, 10 min) the lower phase, containing the peptides, was transferred to a new

low protein binding tube and stored at -80ºC until analyzed. The peptide concentration in the

peptide extracts was determined by AAA.

2D-LC-MS/MS analysis of peptides

Five µg of yeast tryptic digest were analyzed by online 2D reverse-phase (RP)/RP-LC-MS/MS

using a nanoAcquity UPLC system (Waters) coupled to a LTQ Orbitrap XL mass spectrometer

(Thermo Scientific) via a nanoelectrospray source (Proxeon, now Thermo Scientific). Peptides were

separated as described (Kryuchkov et al., 2013). In short, peptide digests were initially trapped on

the first dimension XBridge BEH C18 reversed phase column (300 μm× 50 mm, 5 μm particle size;

Waters) at 2 μl/min with 3% acetonitrile in 20 mM ammonium formate pH 10. Five fractions were

generated by discrete 2-min steps at 2 μl/min of 11.1%, 14.5%, 17.4%, 20.8%, and 50.0%

acetonitrile, respectively. Each eluting fraction was online acidified and diluted 10-fold with 0.1%

formic acid in water at 20 μl/min and trapped on a Symmetry C18 trapping column (180 μm × 20

mm, 5 μm particle size; Waters). Each fraction was separated with a BEH C18 reversed phase

analytical column (75 μm × 250 mm, 1.7 μm particle size; Waters) at 350 nl/min using a 165 min

gradient of 5−35% acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid. The column was operated at 40ºC. The

source was operated at 2.2 kV and with the capillary at 200ºC. The LTQ Orbitrap XL was operated

in data-dependent mode at a target mass resolution of 60,000 (at m/z 400). The scan range of each

survey scan was m/z 300-1650 and up to the 10 most intense peaks with charge ≥2 and an intensity

above the 5000 threshold, were selected and fragmented by collision induced dissociation with

normalized collision energy of 35. The maximum injection times for the survey scan and the

MS/MS scan were 1 s and 150 ms, respectively, and the respective ion target values were set to 1E6

and 1E4. To minimize the redundant selection of precursor ions, the fragmented ions were

dynamically excluded for 120 sec.

Peptide identification and label-free protein quantification

The fragmentation spectra were searched using the search engine Mascot against a customized

database containing the yeast ORF database (Saccharomyces Genome Database; release February 3,

2011; 6717 entries) and additional entries including common contaminants. The search was

facilitated through the Proteome Discoverer software (v1.4, Thermo Scientific) using the following

parameters: trypsin, maximum 2 missed cleavages, 8 ppm precursor mass tolerance, 0.6 Da

fragment mass tolerance, cysteine carbamidomethylation as a fixed modification and acetylation of

protein N-terminal, and oxidation of methionine as dynamic modifications. Peptide identifications

were filtered at 1% false discovery rate on peptide level using Percolator (Kall et al., 2007; Spivak

et al., 2009). Relative protein quantification between experimental conditions was achieved by a

label-free quantification approach using the Progenesis LC-MS software (v4.1, Nonlinear

Dynamics Limited). Briefly, the LC-MS/MS maps of each fraction across the 15 samples were

aligned. The peptide identifications obtained as indicated above were imported and matched to the

corresponding feature across the different runs. The sum of all unique peptide intensities for each

protein was used to calculate the relative changes in protein abundance between the analyzed time

points.

Curation of OLE1 mRNA data

OLE1 transcript abundance was curated from DeRisi et al. (1997) and overlaid with our data after

time realignment using the cell density (OD/ml) and glucose consumption curves.

Yeast lysis and lipid extraction

The yeast lysis and the lipid extraction were carried out at 4ºC as previously described (Ejsing et al.,

2009). In short, yeasts (~5 ODu) were resuspended in 1 ml 155 mM ammonium acetate and lysed

with 400 µl of acid-washed glass beads using a cell disruptor. Lipids were extracted from 0.4 ODu

of yeast lysate, sample volume was adjusted to 200 µl with 155 mM ammonium acetate and mixed

with 17.2 µl of internal standard (IS) mixture. The IS mixture provided a spike of 52 pmol PA 17:0-

14:1, 16 pmol PS 17:0-20:4, 91 pmol PE O-20:0/O-20:0, 116 pmol PC 18:3-18:3, 52 pmol PI 17:0-

14:1, 22 pmol PG 17:0-14:1, 35 pmol CL 14:0-14:0-14:0-14:0, 40 pmol LPA O-16:0, 19 pmol LPS

17:1, 40 pmol LPE O-16:0, 15 pmol LPC O-17:0, 45 pmol LPI 17:1, 16 pmol DG 19:0-19:0, 179

pmol TG 17:1-17:1-17:1, 41 pmol Cer 18:1;2/17:0;0, 122 pmol IPC 18:0;2/26:0;0, 97 pmol MIPC

18:0;2/26:0;0, 33 pmol M(IP)2C 18:0;2/26:0;0, 160 pmol cholesterol ester 19:0, and 420 pmol

cholesterol–D7. For two-step lipid extraction, 990 µl chloroform/methanol (15:1 v/v) were added

and the samples were stirred (1400 rpm, 2 h, 4ºC) using a ThermoMixer (Eppendorf). The lower

organic phase was collected after centrifugation (1000 g, 2 min, 4ºC). The remaining aqueous phase

was reextracted with 990 µl chloroform/methanol (2:1 v/v) for 1 h and the lower organic phase was

collected. The lipid extracts were dried and kept at -20ºC until analyzed.

MS analysis of lipids

The lipid extracts were dissolved in 100 µl chloroform/methanol (1:2, v/v) and analyzed using a

LTQ Orbitrap XL mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific) equipped with a robotic nanoflow ion

source TriVersa NanoMate (Advion Biosciences) as described (Ejsing et al., 2009). For PE, PC,

LPE, LPC, DG, TG, Cer, and ergosterol esters quantification, the 15:1-phase extract was infused in

7.5 mM ammonium acetate in chloroform/methanol/propanol (1:2:4 v/v/v), with the NanoMate

operated at 0.96 kV and 1.25 psi, and analyzed for 5 min in positive ion mode by multiplexed FT

MS analysis alternating low (m/z 220-530) and high (m/z 500-1200) scan ranges. PA, PI, PS, PG,

LPA, LPI, LPS, CL, MLCL, IPC, MIPC, M(IP)2C were quantified in the 2:1-phase extract infused

in 0.005% w/v methylamine in chloroform/methanol (1:5 v/v), with the NanoMate operated at 0.96

kV and 0.6 psi, and analyzed for 5 min in negative ion mode by multiplexed FT MS analysis

alternating low (m/z 200-605), medium (m/z 505-1400) and high (m/z 1000-1600) scan ranges.

Multiplexed FT MS analysis was used to improve ion statistics (Southam et al., 2007), and the m/z

ranges were set to cover all the monitored lipid species of the same lipid class in a single scan

range. Sterols were analyzed in negative ion mode after sulfation of the 15:1-phase extract as

described (Carvalho et al., 2012). Briefly, 40 µl of lipid extract were dried, resolubilized in 20 µl of

31.4 mM sulfur trioxide pyridine complex in pyridine and incubated for 30 min at room

temperature. Then, 2.1 µl of 314 mM barium acetate were added, samples were sonicated and

incubated 10 min at room temperature followed by 1 h at 4ºC. Eighty µl of methanol were then

added, and the solution centrifuged (15000 g, 20 min, 4ºC). The supernatant, was infused in 0.005%

w/v methylamine in pyridine/methanol (1:9, v/v), with the NanoMate operated at 1.5 kV and 2 psi,

and analyzed by FT MS in negative ion mode for 3 min (m/z 455-485). In all analyses, the LTQ

Orbitrap XL was operated in profile mode at a target mass resolution of 100,000 (at m/z 400), 250

ms maximum injection time, and the ion target value was set to 1E6. All samples were analyzed

using 2 technical replicates.

Analysis of lipidomic data

Lipid species were identified using the ALEX software (Husen et al., 2013) and quantified using the

Orange data mining package (Curk et al., 2005). In short, the FT MS data from the Thermo .RAW

files were first converted into averaged spectral peak lists in text file format. Then, a set of target

lists containing all the lipid species to be monitored in each scan range was compiled based on a

priori knowledge and matched with the experimental data (within a mass tolerance of < 3.7 ppm) to

subsequently extract the ion intensities of the identified lipid species. For lipid species

quantification, (i) ion intensities were translated into lipid amounts using internal class-specific lipid

standards as a reference, (ii) background abundances estimated from blank samples were subtracted,

and (iii) lipid species not quantified in both technical replicates were discarded. The 2 technical

replicates were averaged and lipid species were only considered to be present at a particular time

point when detected in at least 2 biological replicates. Special considerations were taken in the

analysis of CL, MLCL, and sterols: (i) CL quantification was based on the 1st isotope of the doubly

charged ion, due to partial overlap between the monoisotopic peaks of certain CL and PE species;

(ii) MLCL levels were estimated using the CL 14:0-14:0-14:0-14:0 standard as a reference; (iii)

cholesterol-D7 was used as an internal standard for sterol quantification and a 0.6 correction factor

was applied to the calculated levels of endogenous sterols (Carvalho et al., 2012) to account the

different signal response between different sterols (Sandhoff et al., 1999).

The following equations were used to compute the presented mol% values:

(*) These calculations are based on the fact that S. cerevisiae synthesizes only saturated (SFA) and

monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) (Stukey et al., 1989; Ejsing et al., 2009).

Modeling TG mobilization during the diauxic shift and post-diauxic phase

We used the S. cerevisiae genome scale metabolic reconstruction Sc_iND750 (Duarte et al., 2004)

and flux balance analysis (Orth et al., 2010) to investigate the metabolic fate of TG lipids mobilized

during the diauxic shift and the post-diauxic phase. The Sc_iND750 model was adapted to mirror

the experimentally determined lipid composition. As monitored TG lipids are annotated by sum

composition, we estimated the fatty acid composition of molecular TG species. To this end, a linear

optimization problem was set up to estimate stoichiometric coefficients for fatty acid moieties

specified in the TG-“component” of the yeast reconstruction. We used the cumulative values of TG

lipid species annotated by sum composition (Table S3) as constraints in the linear program and

maximized the match of fatty acid composition with that previously reported (Zanghellini et al.,

2008). The composition of fatty acids used for the modeling is reported in Table S4. In order to

model the changes in lipid composition at different times we modified several reactions

(R_TRIGS_SC, R_AGAT_SC, R_GAT1_SC, R_GAT2_SC, R_TGL, R_DGL, R_MGL,

R_PLB_lpc, R_PLB_lpe, R_PLB_lps, R_PLB_pc, R_PLB_pe, and R_PLB_ps). In these reactions

the specific fatty acids / acyl-CoAs were replaced by pseudo-particles representing the average fatty

acid composition. The pseudo-particles were defined by two additional reactions (R_FACOA and

R_FA). The complete SBML version of our model (File S3) lists, amongst others, a compartment

with the identifier “Extra_organism”, which comprises all metabolites considered to be external.

Metabolites in the remaining compartments were considered internal. Next, flux balance analysis

was used to determine the fate of fatty acids mobilized from TG during the diauxic shift and post-

diauxic phase. As done in previous studies (Zanghellini et al., 2008), lipid droplets were considered

to be an external compartment and the flux from the lipid pools taken up by the cell was predicted.

Both minimal and maximal TG mobilization were used as objectives. Growth was modeled on

minimal medium containing oxygen, ammonia, sulfate, phosphate, water, potassium, sodium,

protons and ethanol with fixed growth and fixed ethanol uptake. Oxygen uptake was limited to ≤8

mmol·g-1

·h-1

and maintenance requirements were set to R_ATPM = 1 mmol·g-1·

h-1

. Ethanol and TG

lipids were considered to be the sole carbon sources. The biomass and ethanol concentration data

(Figure 1A) were approximated as function of time, t, with exponential functions of the form

using A0 and μ as free fitting parameters. Growth and ethanol uptake were then

approximated by the derivative of f(t). Fluxes were converted to mmol/h and normalized to the

biomass at the respective time. An optical density (OD600) of 1 was assumed to correspond to 1 g

dry-mass per liter. A summary of the fit parameters and errors is given in Table S4. We used Grace

(http://plasma-gate.weizmann.ac.il/Grace) for all fitting purposes and an in-house flux balance

analysis implementation based on the GNU Linear programming kit

(http://www.gnu.org/software/glpk). A copy of the implementation is available on request.
