Abstract excerpt
Yeast mating pheromones are small secreted peptides required for efficient mating between cells of opposite mating type. Pheromone gradients allow the cells to detect potential mating partners. Secreted pheromone degrading proteases steepen local gradients and allow fast recovery from the pheromone signal. The methylotrophic yeast Komagataella phaffii is a preferentially haploid species. Only under nitrogen...
