Sxa2 is a serine carboxypeptidase that degrades extracellular P-factor in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Apr 2000

Ladds G, Davey J

Abstract excerpt

Stimulating the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe with mating pheromones brings about responses that lead to cell conjugation. Persistent stimulation does not, however, induce a continuous response as the cells become desensitized to the presence of the pheromone. One mechanism that contributes to desensitization in M-cells is the release of a carboxypeptidase that inactivates the extracellular P-factor...
