Yeast Cell Receptor

Molecular classification: G protein-coupled receptor, Ion channel, Receptor

Overview

Yeast cells possess several types of receptors, with the most prominent and well-characterized being G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in sensing environmental signals such as pheromones and nutrients. These receptors play crucial roles in yeast physiology, including mating, nutrient sensing, and stress responses. Key receptors include Ste2 (α-factor), Ste3 (a-factor), Gpr1 (glucose), and TRPY1 (mechanosensitive channel). Yeast also express mannoproteins.
