What is it about?

Cells of the budding yeast K. lactis lacking the phosphorelay system are viable and resistant to hyperosmotic stress. In K. lactis there is a strong negative feedback that turns off the osmotic signalling.

Why is it important?

In contrast to S. cerevisiae, in K. lactis there is a strong negative feed back that downregulates the high osmolarity glycerol pathway and avoids constitutive activation of Hog1.
