Report shows that Rho2 undergoes in vivo palmitoylation at cysteine-196 to mediate its full targeting to the plasma membrane.
Title: Rho2 palmitoylation is required for plasma membrane localization and proper signaling to the fission yeast cell integrity mitogen- activated protein kinase pathway.
both Rho1 and Pck1 are positive upstream regulatory members of the CIP in addition to Rho2 and Pck2.
Title: Rho1 GTPase and PKC ortholog Pck1 are upstream activators of the cell integrity MAPK pathway in fission yeast.
Rga4 modulates the activity of the fission yeast cell integrity MAPK pathway by acting as a Rho2 GTPase-activating protein
Title: Rga4 modulates the activity of the fission yeast cell integrity MAPK pathway by acting as a Rho2 GTPase-activating protein.
These results demonstrate that Cpp1 is a key component of the Pck2-Pmk1 signaling through the spatial control of the small GTPase Rho2.
Title: Rho2 is a target of the farnesyltransferase Cpp1 and acts upstream of Pmk1 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling in fission yeast.
