Sexual pheromone induces diffusion of the pheromone-homologous polypeptide in the extracellular matrix of Volvox carteri.

Koichi Ishida1.   

Abstract

The C-terminal domain of pherophorin II is homologous to the sexual pheromone of Volvox carteri and is released from other domains during sexual induction. Green fluorescent protein fused to the C terminus of pherophorin II was located at the extracellular matrix directly surrounding the gonidium, the final target of the sexual-induction signal.
