| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Cell surface glycoprotein promoting cell-cell contact to facilitate mating. Saccharomyces cerevisiae A and alpha cells express the complementary cell surface glycoproteins A-agglutinin and alpha-, respectively, which interact with one another to promote cellular aggregation during mating. Ref.9 |
| Subunit structure | Interacts with AGA2. Ref.11 |
| Subcellular location | Secreted › cell wall. Membrane; Lipid-anchor › GPI-anchor. Note: Covalently-linked GPI-modified cell wall protein (GPI-CWP). Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.10 |
| Induction | By exposition to pheromone (A-factor) secreted by the opposite mating type cells (type A). |
| Post-translational modification | N-glycosylated, and O-glycosylated by both PMT1 and PMT2. Ref.5 Ref.6 The GPI-anchor is attached to the protein in the endoplasmic reticulum and serves to target the protein to the cell surface. There, the glucosamine-inositol phospholipid moiety is cleaved off and the GPI-modified mannoprotein is covalently attached via its lipidless GPI glycan remnant to the 1,6-beta-glucan of the outer cell wall layer. |
| Sequence similarities | To C.albicans ALS1. |
