Claims
- 1. An isolated human signal mediator protein between about 795 and about 875 amino acids in length, said protein being encoded by SEQ ID NO: 1 and comprising an amino-terminal SH3 domain, an internal domain that includes a multiplicity of SH2 binding motifs, said SH2 binding motifs being encoded by consensus nucleic acid sequences, and a carboxy-terminal effector domain, said carboxy-terminal effector domain, when produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, being capable of inducing pseudohyphal budding in said Saccharomyces cerevisiae under low nitrogen culture conditions.
- 2. The protein of claim 1, comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO. 2.
- 3. An isolated polypeptide produced by expression of an isolated nucleic acid sequence selected from the group consisting of:
- a) SEQ ID NO: 1;
- b) a sequence specifically hybridizing with the full complementary strand of SEQ ID NO: 1 under hybridization conditions of 5X SSC at 42.degree. C. and wash conditions of 1X SSC at 65.degree. C. wherein said sequence encodes a signal mediator protein;
- c) a sequence encoding the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 2; and
- d) a nucleic acid sequence encoding a carboxy terminal effector domain of a signal mediator protein comprising an amino acid sequence corresponding to amino acids 626-834 of SEQ ID NO: 2.
- 4. A carboxy-terminal effector protein domain, said effector domain comprising a sequence of amino acids 626-834 of SEQ ID NO: 2.
- 5. An isolated mouse signal mediator protein which is between about 795 and about 875 amino acids in length and is encoded by a nucleic acid that specifically hybridizes with SEQ ID NO: 1 under hybridization conditions of 5X SSC at 42.degree. C. and wash conditions of 1X SSC at 65.degree. C., said protein comprising an amino-terminal SH3 domain, an internal domain that includes a multiplicity of SH2 binding motifs, said SH2 binding motifs being encoded by consensus nucleic acid sequences, and a carboxy-terminal effector domain, said carboxy-terminal effector domain, when produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, being capable of inducing pseudohyphal budding in said Saccharomyces cerevisiae under low nitrogen conditions.
