Phosphorylated FUS3 activates the mating but suppresses the filamentation pathway, whereas activated KSS1 activates both pathways. Pheromone-activated FUS3 functions by inhibiting the binding of the transcriptional activator STE12 to filamentation specific genes while inducing its binding to and activity at mating specific genes. Non-activated FUS3 has a repressive effect on STE12 transcriptional activity. KSS1 can partially compensate for the lack of FUS3 but mating efficiency is reduced and the filamentation program is partially activated upon pheromone signaling. FUS3 phosphorylates STE7, STE5, FAR1, DIG1, DIG2 and STE12. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Cells use a network of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) to coordinate responses to diverse extracellular signals. Here, we examine the role of docking interactions in determining connectivity of the yeast MAPKs Fus3 and Kss1. These closely related kinases are activated by the common upstream MAPK kinase Ste7 yet generate distinct output responses, mating and filamentous growth, respectively. We find that docking interactions are necessary for communication with the kinases and that they can encode subtle differences in pathway-specific input and output. The cell cycle arrest mediator Far1, a mating-specific substrate, has a docking motif that selectively binds Fus3. In contrast, the shared partner Ste7 has a promiscuous motif that binds both Fus3 and Kss1. Structural analysis reveals that Fus3 interacts with specific and promiscuous peptides in conformationally distinct modes. Induced fit recognition may allow docking peptides to achieve discrimination by exploiting subtle differences in kinase flexibility.
