In the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, uptake of the fluorescent styryl dye FM4-64 via the endocytic pathway to the vacuole was localised to the poles of growing, interphase cells and to the cell equator during cell division, regions of cell wall deposition that are rich in actin. When the pattern of growth or the plane of cytokinesis was altered, the relationship between the actin cytoskeleton and the site of endocytosis was maintained. Transfer of the label to the vacuolar membrane was dependent upon the Rab GTPase Ypt7 and, hence, vesicle fusion. Endocytic vesicles transiently colocalised with actin patches and endocytosis was inhibited in mutants that affected actin patch integrity and by the actin inhibitor latrunculin A. Concentrations of latrunculin that removed actin cables but left patches unaffected had no effect on endocytosis at the poles, but abolished endocytosis at the cell equator. Equatorial, but not polar, endocytosis was also inhibited in cells lacking the formin For3 (which have selectively destabilised actin cables), in mutants of the exocyst complex and in cells treated with brefeldin A. Differential effects on endocytosis at the cell poles and equator were also observed in the actin mutant cps8 and the Arp2/3 complex mutant arp2. The redirection of endocytosis from the cell poles to the cell equator in M phase coincided with the anaphase separation of sister chromatids and was abolished in the septation initiation network (SIN) mutants cdc7, sid1 and sid2, demonstrating that the spatial reorganisation of the endocytic pathway in the S. pombe cell cycle requires a functional SIN pathway. We conclude that endocytosis in fission yeast has two distinct components, both of which are actin-based, but which are mechanistically distinct, as well as being spatially and temporally separated in the S. pombe cell cycle.
