Abstract excerpt
The a-factor mating pheromone, produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae a haploid cells, is post-translationally modified in a manner analogous to that of the ras proto-oncogene product. A consensus C-terminal amino acid sequence, -CAAX (C is cysteine, A is aliphatic amino acid, and X is any amino ac...
