Ste2p[1]

In Vitro α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast is synthesized constitutively by MATα cells and acting on MATa cells[1]. α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast inhibits the division cycle of yeast a cells, and competes for binding of 35S-α-factor to haploid a cells, with Kd of 0.3 μM, and this binding is related to five temperature-sensitive ste2 mutants, and is thermolabile. However, α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast binding activity of other temperature-sensitive mutants (ste4, ste5, ste7, ste11, and ste12) shows no thermolability[2].
