Abstract excerpt
Isoamyl alcohol (IAA) induces a phenotype that resembles pseudohyphae in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We show here that IAA causes the rapid formation of linear chains of anucleate buds, each of which is accompanied by the formation of a septin ring at its neck. This process requires the activity of Swe1 and Slt2 (Mpk1). Cdc28 is phosphorylated on tyrosine 19 in a Swe1-dependent manner, while Slt2...
