FAR1 is required for oriented polarization of yeast cells in response to mating pheromones.

The Journal of cell biology - 1 Nov 1995

Valtz N, Peter M, Herskowitz I

Abstract excerpt

Cell polarization involves specifying an area on the cell surface and organizing the cytoskeleton towards that landmark. The mechanisms by which external signals are translated into internal landmarks for polarization are poorly understood. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae exhibits polarized growth during mating: the actin cytoskeleton of each cell polarizes towards its partner, presumably to allow efficient...
