Abstract excerpt
Mating pheromone receptors of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are useful models for the study of G protein-coupled receptors. The mating pheromone receptors, Ste2 and Ste3, are not essential for viability so they can be readily targeted for analysis by a variety of genetic approaches. This chapter will describe methods for identification of two kinds of mutants that have been very informative about the...
