Cell wall integrity is compromised under temperature stress in Schizosaccharomyces pombe expressing a valproic acid-sensitive vas4 mutant
Abstract Valproic acid (VPA) is widely used as a eutherapeutic and safe anticonvulsant drug, but the mechanism is not well elucidated. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) were first identified as direct targets of VPA. Many loss-of function mutants in S. pombe have been shown to be VPA sensitive but not se...
