Stress response and checkpoint activation are the main determinants of cellular survival in adverse conditions. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, these are controlled by the Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase Spc1 and the Cyclin dependent Kinase Cdc2 respectively. Cdc2 is regulated positively by Cdc25 and negatively by Wee1. Changes in Cdc2 activity can be sensed by Spc1 resulting in the modulation of mitotic timing by Spc1. Functional cross talks between cell cycle regulation and MAPK machinery during regulation of mitotic timing are well characterised but the presence of similar communication during stress response remains unexplored. In this study we report how the checkpoint activator kinase Wee1 can also influence the transcriptional response to oxidative stress. We show that deletion of Wee1 results in changes in gene expression of the cells, especially with respect to genes whose expression is known to be regulated by Spc1. These differences are seen in unperturbed cells as well as during oxidative stress. Moreover, such variations extend beyond what could be expected to occur due to the known enhanced Spc1 activity of these cells. This is the first depiction of the influence of Wee1 and consequently Cdc2 activity on transcriptional response to oxidative stress. |
