Phosphorylation of the Transcription Factor Atf1 at Multiple Sites by the MAP Kinase Sty1 Controls Homologous Recombination and Transcription.

Abstract excerpt

Transcription factors are often the downstream effectors of signaling cascades. In fission yeast, the transcription factor Atf1 is phosphorylated by the MAP kinase Sty1 under several environmental stressors to promote transcription initiation of stress genes. However, Sty1 and Atf1 have also been involved in other cellular processes such as homologous recombination at hotspots, ste11 gene expression during mating...
