Schizosaccharomyces pombe ste11+ encodes a transcription factor with an HMG motif that is a critical regulator of sexual development.
Open accessAbstract
Schizosaccharomyces pombe ste11 encodes a member of the family of HMG-box proteins. Its transcript is induced in response to nitrogen starvation and a concomitant decrease of the intracellular cAMP level. Expression of ste11 is essential for induction of sexual development, and its ectopic expression stimulates uncontrolled mating and sporulation. Ste11 protein regulates positively transcription of the following genes required for sexual development: the mating type genes, matP and matM, and the mei2 gene, which is essential for commitment to meiosis. Ste11 protein synthesized in vitro binds specifically to a DNA fragment carrying a 10-base motif TTCTTTGTTY that is an essential cis-acting element for the induction of mei2 and is commonly seen in the upstream regions of the genes inducible by nitrogen starvation. These observations strongly suggest that Ste11 serves as a key transcription factor for sexual development.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
