Definition

A MAPK cascade containing at least the SLT2 (S.cerevisiae)/Pmk1 (S.pombe) MAP kinase. It starts with the activation of an upstream MAP4K, and continues with the consecutive activation of a MAP3K and a MAP2K. The upstream MAP4K is activated following the detection of stretching of the plasma membrane or alterations of its connections to the cell wall by membrane sensors. (5)
