Tec1/Ste12/Dig1 transcription regulation complex Overview

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code.


Summary
Translational repressor complex which binds to the filamentation response elements (FREs) on filamentous growth-specific target genes and, at much lower levels, at the pheremone response elements (PREs) of mating genes. Upon pheromone stimulation, Fus3 MAPK (P16892) phosphorylates members of the Ste12 complex leading to dissociation and/or conformational change of the complex and to relief of Ste12 repression.
GO Slim Terms

The yeast GO Slim terms are higher level terms that best represent the major S. cerevisiae biological processes, functions, and cellular components. The GO Slim terms listed here are the broader parent terms for the specific terms to which this gene product is annotated, and thus represent the more general processes, functions, and components in which it is involved.
