CC   -!- FUNCTION: M-factor is a mating pheromone produced by M-type mating
CC       cells. All three mfm genes contribute to the production of M-factor.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Lipid-anchor
CC       {ECO:0000305}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000305}.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: By nitrogen starvation. It is further induced by a pheromone
CC       signal. Its transcription is limited to M cells.
