Synonyms: | cell integrity MAPK pathway, cell wall integrity MAPK cascade, CWI pathway, Mpk1 cascade, Pmk1 MAPK cell integrity signaling, Pmk1 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cell integrity pathway, PMK1-MAPK signal transduction pathway, Slt2 cascade |
Definition: | A MAPK cascade that specifically ensures the maintenance and regulation of cellular structure in response to external signals, including plasma membrane stretching or cell wall alteration, to coordinate cellular responses such as growth, differentiation, and stress adaptation, thereby preserving cell integrity. Contains the SLT2 (S.cerevisiae)/Pmk1 (S.pombe) MAP kinase or orthologs. |
