The role of cysteine residues in the homeodomain protein Mat alpha 2 in mating-type control of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 Jun 1997

Abstract excerpt

The Mat alpha 2 homeodomain protein plays a pivotal role in the control of cell type in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The homeodomain in the C-terminal region of Mat alpha 2 functions as a DNA-binding domain and the N-terminal region, containing two cysteine residues at positions 33 and 34, is thought to be involved in formation of Mat alpha 2 homodimers via disulfide bonds. mat alpha 2 mutants, isolated in a...
