Abstract excerpt
Dominant mutations at the DAF2 locus confer resistance to the cell-cycle arrest that normally occurs in MATa cells exposed to alpha-factor. One of these alleles, DAF2-2, has also been shown to suppress the constitutive signaling phenotype of null alleles of the gene encoding the alpha subunit of the G protein involved in pheromone signaling. These observations indicate that DAF2-2 inhibits transmission of the...
