Abstract excerpt
The mating pheromone response in S. cerevisiae is activated by a G protein-mediated signaling pathway in which G beta gamma is the active transducer of the signal. When exogenous pheromone is added to vegetatively growing cells, G beta is rapidly phosphorylated at several sites; phosphorylation d...
