Abstract excerpt
The fission yeast gene cps1, which encodes the catalytic subunit of beta-glucan synthase, was isolated in a screen for mutants that show an increase in ploidy at the restrictive temperature. cps1 mutants display defects in both polarity and septation at the permissive temperature, and become swollen and multinucleate at the restrictive temperature. Analysis of the interaction of cps1 with other mutations suggests...
