"A two-component system that regulates an osmosensing MAP kinase cascade in yeast."

Maeda T, Wurgler-Murphy SM, Saito H



Published May 19, 1994 in Nature volume 369 .

Pubmed ID: 8183345

Abstract:
In the prokaryotic two-component signal transduction systems, recognition of an environmental stimulus by a sensor molecule results in the activation of its histidine kinase domain and phosphorylation of a histidine residue within that domain. This phosphate group is then transferred to an aspartate residue in the receiver domain of a cognate response regulator molecule, resulting in the activation of its output function. Although a few eukaryotic proteins were identified recently that show sequence similarity to the prokaryotic sensors or response regulators, it has not been clear whether they constituted a part of a 'two-component' system. Here we describe a two-component system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that regulates an osmosensing MAP kinase cascade.
