Abstract excerpt
In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the preservation of the mating competent haploid (a or alpha) and the mating incompetent diploid (a/alpha) is necessary to prevent aneuploidy. Once haploid cells respond to pheromone, the mating-specific signal transduction pathway is activated, and the MAP kinase Fus3 phosphorylates two specific repressor proteins Rst1 and Rst2 (also known as Dig1 and Dig2) to...
