Identification
NameMating factor alpha-2
Synonyms
  • Alpha-2 mating pheromone
Gene NameMF(ALPHA)2
Enzyme ClassNot Available
Biological Properties
General Functionpheromone-dependent signal transduction involved in conjugation with cellular fusion
Specific FunctionThe active factor is excreted into the culture medium by haploid cells of the alpha mating type and acts on cells of the opposite mating type (type A). It mediates the conjugation process between the two types by inhibiting the initiation of DNA synthesis in type a cells and synchronizing them with type alpha.
