Modelling of Yeast Mating Reveals Robustness Strategies for Cell-Cell Interactions.

Mating of budding yeast cells is a model system for studying cell-cell interactions. Haploid yeast cells secrete mating pheromones that are sensed by the partner which responds by growing a mating projection toward the source. The two projections meet and fuse to form the diploid. Successful mating...
