35
Q

What response would occur if phos of p38 was sustained or short

A

Sustained is apoptosis

Fast phos is growth/proliferation via gf

36
Q

How many mapk paths in yeast cerevisiae

A

4

37
Q

Which mapk is for the pheromone response for mating

A

Fus3

38
Q

Which mapk is for filamentation or incase growth (activated by starvation)

A

Kss1

39
Q

Why is there a lot of potential cross talk between fus3 mating and invasive growth/dilamentstikn of kss1

A

Same mapkkk and mapkk

Ste11 and ste7

40
Q

Which scaffold protein holds fus3 ste11 and 7 to stop it cross talking with kss1 and allows mating

A

Ste5

41
Q

What is the stress induced mapk in cerevisiae , candida and Pom be

A

Hog1

42
Q

Does hog1 have a scaffold

A

Yes pbs2 which also acts as a mapkk for ste11 (yes hog shares mapkkk of fus3 and kss1)

43
Q

Which 2 scaffolds does erk have

A

Ksr and mp1

44
Q

What is always bound to ksr scaffold

A

Mek and raf, erk only associates if signal produced

45
Q

What protein allows mp1 localisation in endosomes to allow it to activate erk path

A

P14

46
Q

Which signal is mp1 important for

A

Egf which is pro and diff

47
Q

Is mek bound to mp1 always

A

Yes

48
Q

How many branches of mapkkk does hog1 in cerevisiae have before the pbs2 and hog1

A

2 (the ste11 one and another )

49
Q

How does hog help osmotic stress

A

Glycerol transport

50
Q

What other responses does hog mediate

A

Cell cycle progession , txn , translation, metabolism, ion transport

51
Q

Which mapk is important for candida virulence so the path is good for drug target

A

Hog1

52
Q

What is the 2 component system of hog in candida

A

The phos of 3 proteins - ( histidine pk, phosphotransfer protein , response regulator)

Inactivates hog phos

This phos is blocked when signals like osmotic stress occurs
