We show that the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway that responds to osmotic stress in Aspergillus fumigatus is also involved in nutritional sensing. This MAP kinase regulates conidial germination in response to the nitrogen source and is activated upon starvation for either carbon or nitrogen during vegetative growth.
我们发现,烟曲霉中对渗透胁迫作出反应的丝裂原活化蛋白(MAP)激酶途径也参与营养感知。这种MAP激酶响应氮源调节分生孢子萌发,并在营养生长期间碳或氮饥饿时被激活。
