The Saccharomyces cerevisiae DPP1-encoded diacylglycerol pyrophosphate phosphatase is a vacuole membrane-associated enzyme that catalyzes the removal of the beta-phosphate from diacylglycerol pyrophosphate to form phosphatidate, and it then removes the phosphate from phosphatidate to form diacylglycerol. The enzyme has six putative transmembrane domains and a hydrophilic region that contains a phosphatase motif required for its catalytic activity. In this work, we examined the topography of diacylglycerol-pyrophosphate phosphatase catalytic site within the transverse plane of the vacuole membrane. Results of protease protection analysis using endoproteinase Lys-C and labeling of cysteine residues using sulfhydryl reagents were consistent with a model where the catalytic site of diacylglycerol-pyrophosphate phosphatase was oriented to the cytosolic face of the vacuole membrane. In addition, diacylglycerol-pyrophosphate phosphatase activity was found with intact vacuoles. The phospholipids diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (0.6 mol %) and phosphatidate (1.4 mol %) were found in the vacuole membrane, and their levels decreased to an undetectable level and by 79%, respectively, when cells were depleted for zinc. The reduced levels of diacylglycerol pyrophosphate and phosphatidate correlated with the induced expression of diacylglycerol-pyrophosphate phosphatase. This work suggested that diacylglycerol pyrophosphate phosphatase functions to regulate the levels of diacylglycerol pyrophosphate and phosphatidate on the cytosolic face of the vacuole membrane.
