Yeast respond to a variety of stresses through a global stress response that is mediated by a number of signal transduction pathways and thecis-acting STRE DNA sequence. TheCYC7gene, encoding iso-2-cytochrome c, has been demonstrated to respond to heat shock, glucose starvation, approach-to-stationary phase, and, as we demonstrate here, to osmotic stress. This response was delayed in a thehogl-Δ1strain implicating the Hog1 mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade, a known component of the global stress response. Deletion analysis of theCYC7regulatory region suggested that three STRE elements were each capable of inducing the stress response. Mutations in theROX3gene preventedCYC7RNA accumulation during heat shock and osmotic stress.ROX3RNA levels were shown to be induced by stress through a novel regulatory element. A selection for high-copy suppressors of aROX3temperature-sensitive allele resulted in the isolation ofRTS1, encoding a protein with homology to the B′ regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 2A0. Deletion ofRTS1caused temperature and osmotic sensitivity and increased accumulation ofCYC7RNA under all conditions. Over-expression of this gene caused increasedCYC7RNA accumulation inrox3mutants but not in wild-type cells.
