“…In addition to inducing BAR1 expression, MAPK activation induces expression of SST2, a regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) protein that inactivates Ga (Dohlman et al, 1996;Apanovitch et al, 1998), and MSG5, a phosphatase that dephosphorylates the MAPK (Doi et al, 1994;Chen and Thorner, 2007). MAPK also directly binds (Bhattacharyya et al, 2006) and phosphorylates (Repetto et al, 2018) the scaffold Ste5, both subunits of Gbg (Li et al, 1998;Choudhury et al, 2018;Abdul-Ganiyu et al, 2021), and the upstream MAPKK (Errede and Ge, 1996), all of which appear to be adaptive pathways. Other adaptive pathways may also be triggered by MAPK activation (Yu et al, 2008).…”
