| Method |
yeast MATa cells respond to alpha pheromone by undergoing several inducible responses: the arrest of cell division, the production of a cell surface agglutinin, and the formation of one or more projections on the cell surface commonly termed the "shmoo" morphology. Dose-response curves were determined for each of these inducible responses as a function of alpha factor concentration. Two new cell division arrest assays were devised here and are the N4/NO and the %UBh assays. |
| Comments |
This dose is nearly the same as that at which cells exhibit a half-maximal response for agglutination induction (0.1nM, bion 103616) |
