title: Salt stress induces the expression of Schizosaccharomyces pombe och1+, which encodes an initiation-specific alpha-1,6-mannosyltransferase for N-linked outer chain synthesis of cell wall mannoproteins.
abstract: The Schizosaccharomyces pombe Och1p is required for the initiation of outer chain elongation of N-linked oligosaccharides. In this report, we investigated the transcriptional control of the S. pombe och1+ gene and found that the expression of the och1+ gene was not regulated during the cell cycle, but was induced by NaCl and KCl through a transcription factor, Atf1p.
