The yeast histidine protein kinase, Sln1p, mediates phosphotransfer to two response regulators, Ssk1p and Skn7p

Abstract: The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sln1 protein is a 'twocomponent' regulator involved in osmotolerance. Twocomponent regulators are a family of signal-transduction molecules with histidine kinase activity common in prokaryotes and recently identified in eukaryotes. Phosphorylation of Sln1p inhibits the HOG1 MAP kinase osmosensing pathway via a phosphorelay mechanism including Ypd1p and the response regulator, Ssk1p. SLN1 also activates an MCM1-dependent reporter gene, P-lacZ, but this function is independent of Ssk… Show more

“…The data strongly imply that phosphotransfer from Sln1p to Ypd1p to Skn7p (Asp427) is occurring. Similar results by Li et al (1998) establish that the Sln1p-regulated osmotic stress pathway is bifurcated, with Sln1p kinase transmitting signals via Ypd1p to two response regulators, Ssk1p and Skn7p. Therefore, Ypd1p plays a key role in this increasingly complex signal-transduction pathway in S. cerevisiae.…”

“…3 This might be due to the fact that the cell needs to circumvent a bottleneck in information shuttling. Ypd1 is able to interact with both Ssk1 in the cytosol as well as nuclear Skn7 (Li et al 1998;Lu et al 2003) to transfer the phosphate to the respective response regulator domain, but a transfer to Ssk1 is strongly favored as demonstrated in Janiak- Spens et al (2005). The phosphoryl group was not observed to be transported back to Ypd1.…”

“…64,66,67 S. cerevisiae has a single HSK, Sln1p, which is required for osmotic adaption via an Ypd1p containing a histidine (His) phosphotransfer (HPt) domain and two response regulators (RR), Ssk1p and Skn7p. [68][69][70] All fungal HSKs identified have both a histidine kinase and a RR domains. 63,65,71 Under normal osmolarity, the Sln1p kinase is spontaneously phosphorylated at a conserved histidine residue.…”

“…In contrast, the phosphorylated Skn7p is active and capable of regulating the genes whose products are responsible for low osmolarity. 68,70 In addition, S. cerevisiae uses a Sho1p protein, independent of HSK, to counteract osmotic stress. 72,73 HSKmediated signals have long been thought to be transduced primarily via the Hog1 MAP kinase pathway.…”
