Abstract excerpt

Cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae undergo morphogenesis in response to the mating pheromones a- and alpha-factors. The 'shmoo' morphology involves localized cell surface projection formation and cytoskeleton protein synthesis. This polarization is presumed to be a prelude to mating betw...
