The STE2 gene of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a component of the receptor for the oligopeptide pheromone alpha-factor. We have cloned and determined the nucleotide sequence of the STE2 gene. A sequence involved in the control of cell-type expression of the STE2 gene was found 5' of an open reading frame that could encode a protein of 431 amino acids. The predicted STE2 protein contains seven hydrophobic segments, suggesting that the alpha-factor receptor is an integral membrane protein. No extensive homology at the primary sequence level was detected between the predicted STE2 protein and other available protein sequences.
酿酒酵母的STE2基因编码寡肽信息素α-因子受体的一个组分。我们已克隆并测定了STE2基因的核苷酸序列。在一个可读框5'端发现了一个参与STE2基因细胞类型表达调控的序列,该可读框可编码一个含431个氨基酸的蛋白质。预测的STE2蛋白含有7个疏水片段,这表明α-因子受体是一种整合膜蛋白。在预测的STE2蛋白与其他已知蛋白质序列之间未检测到一级序列水平的广泛同源性。
