Abstract:
:MAP kinases are important signaling molecules regulating cell survival, proliferation and differentiation, and can be activated by cadmium stress. In this study, we demonstrate that cadmium induces phosphorylation of the yeast cell wall integrity (CWI) pathway_MAP kinase Slt2, and this cadmium-induced CWI activation is mediated by the cell surface sensor Mid2 through the GEF Rom1, the central regulator Rho1 and Bck1. Nevertheless, cadmium stress does not affect the subcellular localization of Slt2 proteins. In addition, this cadmium-induced CWI activation is independent on the calcium/calcineurin signaling and the high osmolarity glycerol (HOG) signaling pathways in yeast cells. Furthermore, we tested the cadmium sensitivity of 42 paired double-gene deletion mutants between six CWI components and seven components of the HOG pathway. Our results indicate that the CWI pathway is epistatic to the HOG pathway in cadmium sensitivity. However, gene deletion mutations for the Swi4/Swi6 transcription factor complex show synergistic effects with mutations of HOG components in cadmium sensitivity.
