Abstract excerpt
The high-osmolarity glycerol (HOG) pathway is one of the several MAP kinase cascades in fungi. It is the main signal transduction system that is responsible for cellular stress responses, and has primarily been studied in the context of osmotic stress. In the present study, we provide the first insights into the HOG pathway of the obligatory halophilic basidiomycetous fungus Wallemia ichthyophaga, with the...
