Résumé

How cells of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe respond to alkaline stress is not well understood. Here, to elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying the alkaline stress response in S. pombe, we performed DNA microarray analysis. We found that a homolog of human catechol O-methyltransferase 2 (COMT2) is highly upregulated in S. pombe cells exposed to alkaline conditions. We designated the S. pombe homolog as cmt2
