Light Stress in Yeasts: Signaling and Responses in Creatures of the Night

Abstract: Living organisms on the surface biosphere are periodically yet consistently exposed to light. The adaptive or protective evolution caused by this source of energy has led to the biological systems present in a large variety of organisms, including fungi. Among fungi, yeasts have developed essential protective responses against the deleterious effects of light. Stress generated by light exposure is propagated through the synthesis of hydrogen peroxide and mediated by regulatory factors that are also involved in… Show more

“…Yeast cells use a peroxisomal oxidase to convert light into an H 2 O 2 signal that is subsequently detected by Tsa1 and relayed to thioredoxin, which inhibits PKA activity and helps regulate the accumulation of Msn2 in the nucleus [44]. Msn2 is a PKA-regulated transcription factor critical for triggering the expression of stress-responsive genes upon exposure to various environmental signals, including oxidative stress [358,359]. Its deletion disturbs LOC to HOC switching, leading to YMC dysregulation [338,360].…”
