Abstract: | "The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae responds to intracellular and extracellular cues to direct cell growth. Genetic analysis has revealed many components that participate in this process and has provided insight into the mechanisms by which these proteins function. Several of these components, such as the septins, pheromone receptors and GTPase proteins, have homologues in multicellular eukaryotes, suggesting that many aspects of polarized cell growth may be conserved throughout evolution. This review discusses our current understanding of the molecular mechanisms of growth-site selection during the different stages of the yeast life cycle" |
