Molecular coevolution of a sex pheromone and its receptor triggers reproductive isolation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 7 Apr 2015

Abstract excerpt

The diversification of sex pheromones is regarded as one of the causes of prezygotic isolation that results in speciation. In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the molecular recognition of a peptide pheromone by its receptor plays an essential role in sexual reproduction. We considered that molecular coevolution of a peptide-mating pheromone, M factor, and its receptor, Map3, might be realized by...
