Summary: Enables MAP kinase kinase kinase kinase activity and histone H2BS14 kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including bipolar cellular bud site selection; intracellular signal transduction; and negative regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process. Located in several cellular components, including incipient cellular bud site; mating projection tip; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast cancer; ductal carcinoma in situ; non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability 30; renal cell carcinoma; and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human PAK1 (p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 1); PAK2 (p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 2); and PAK3 (p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

A Protein-Protein Interaction Analysis Suggests a Wide Range of New Functions for the p21-Activated Kinase (PAK) Ste20.
Title: A Protein-Protein Interaction Analysis Suggests a Wide Range of New Functions for the p21-Activated Kinase (PAK) Ste20.
Yeast daughter cells can polarize Cdc42 before CDK activation at start. This polarization operates via a positive feedback loop mediated by the Cdc42 effector Ste20.

during filamentous growth, Ste20 stimulates V-ATPase activity, this would sustain nutrient mobilization from vacuolar stores, which is beneficial for filamentous growth.

Title: Global mapping of protein phosphorylation events identifies Ste20, Sch9 and the cell-cycle regulatory kinases Cdc28/Pho85 as mediators of fatty acid starvation responses in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Nbp2p SH3 domain made contacts with the Ste20 peptide core RXXPXXP motif and the Bem1p SH3b domain made stronger contacts with residues flanking the core motif.
Title: Distinct peptide binding specificities of Src homology 3 (SH3) protein domains can be determined by modulation of local energetics across the binding interface.
The signaling proteins Ste5 and Ste20 have recognition sequences, or "docking" sites, for G1/S (interphase) cyclins. These docking sites bind preferentially to the cyclin Cln2, and strongly enhance Cln2-driven in vivo substrate phosphorylation.
Title: Cyclin-specific docking motifs promote phosphorylation of yeast signaling proteins by G1/S Cdk complexes.
Ste20 has an unexpected role in the modulation of mRNA decay and translation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Phosphorylation of Dcp2 by Ste20 is an important control point for mRNA decapping.
