FIGURE 4: A working hypothesis model for yeast acetic acid-stress response regulation by RTG and CCR pathways.
Exponential glucose-grown cells undergo PCD in response to acetic acid with simultaneous repression of respiration and of RTG pathway. Raffinose-grown cells evade AA-PCD with de-repressed respiration [16] and RTG pathway activation. ADR1 and CAT8 are required for RTG pathway activation through an unknown mechanism (for details see text), showing a key role of SNF1-dependent CCR pathway in carbon source-regulation of mitochondrial RTG pathway. RTG2 may play a function in promoting cell death in repressing conditions when RTG pathway is inactive.
