Abstract excerpt
The alpha-pheromone receptor encoded by the STE2 gene contains seven potential transmembrane domains. Its ability to transduce the pheromone signal is thought to require the action of a G protein. As an initial step toward defining the structural features of the receptor required for its activity, we examined the phenotypic consequences of linker insertion mutations (12 bp) at 10 different sites in the STE2 gene....
