Abstract excerpt
Cell integrity in yeasts is ensured by a rigid cell wall whose synthesis is triggered by a MAP kinase-mediated signal-transduction cascade. Upstream regulatory components of this pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae involve a single protein kinase C, which is regulated by interaction with the small GTPase Rho1. Here, two genes were isolated which encode these proteins from Kluyveromyces lactis (KlPKC1 and KlRHO1)....
