A possible mechanism for partitioning between homo- and heterodimerization of the yeast homeodomain proteins MATa1 and MATalpha2.

The journal of peptide research : official journal of the American Peptide Society - 1 Jan 2002

Abstract excerpt

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has three cell types distinguished by the proteins encoded in their mating-type (MAT) loci: the a and alpha haploids, which express the DNA-binding proteins a1, and alpha1 and alpha2, respectively, and the a/alpha diploid which expresses both a1 and alpha2 proteins. In a/alpha cells, a1-alpha2 heterodimers repress haploid-specific genes and MATalpha1, whereas alpha2 homodimers...
