Scp160-Dependent mRNA Trafficking Mediates Pheromone Gradient Sensing and Chemotropism in Yeast

mRNAs encoding polarity and secretion factors (POLs) target the incipient bud site in yeast for localized translation during division. In pheromone-treated cells we now find that these mRNAs are also localized to the yeast-mating projection (shmoo) tip. However, in contrast to the budding program,...
