Abstract excerpt

Mating pheromones, a- and alpha-factors, arrest the division of cells of opposite mating types, alpha and a cells, respectively. I have isolated a sterile mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is defective in division arrest in response to alpha-factor but not defective in morphological changes...
