Caffeine activates HOG-signalling and inhibits pseudohyphal growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract Objective Caffeine has a wide range of effects in humans and other organisms. Caffeine activates p38 MAPK, the human homolog to the Hog1 protein that orchestrates the high-osmolarity glycerol (HOG) response to osmotic stress in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Caffeine has also been used...
