Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a phosphorelay signal transduction pathway composed of Sln1p, Ypd1p, and Ssk1p, which are homologous to bacterial two-component signal transducers, is involved in the osmosensing mechanism. In response to high osmolarity, the phosphorelay system is inactivated and Ssk1p remains unphosphorylated. Unphosphorylated Ssk1p binds to and activates the Ssk2p mitogen-activated protein (MAP)...
