Description of YOL105C: Partially redundant sensor-transducer of the stress-activated PKC1-MPK1 signaling pathway involved in maintenance of cell wall integrity; involved in the response to heat shock and other stressors; regulates 1,3-beta-glucan synthesis[1][2][3][4]

Transmembrane Domain GxxxG

The transmembrane domain of Wsc3p shows homology with the SKG6/AXL2 alpha-helix transmembrane domain (IPR014805). In particular, this domain begins with lsgGaiaGiviGvvfG. The presence of multiple overlapping GxxxG motifs [5] strongly indicates that Wsc3p multimerises.
