Description

α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast is a tridecapeptide secreted by S. cerevisiae α cells via Ste2p receptor.

IC50 & Target

Ste2p[1]

In Vitro

α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast is synthesized constitutively by MATα cells and acting on MATa cells[1]. α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast inhibits the division cycle of yeast a cells, and competes for binding of 35S-α-factor to haploid a cells, with Kd of 0.3 μM, and this binding is related to five temperature-sensitive ste2 mutants, and is thermolabile. However, α-Factor Mating Pheromone, yeast binding activity of other temperature-sensitive mutants (ste4, ste5, ste7, ste11, and ste12) shows no thermolability[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
