Application

Application Comment Organism
molecular biology Kex2 and Kex1 may promote cell fusion by proteolytically processing substrates that act in parallel to Prm1 (pheromone-regulated membrane protein 1) as an alternative fusion machine, as cell wall components, or both Saccharomyces cerevisiae
