Abstract excerpt
Meiosis is the developmental program by which sexually reproducing diploid organisms generate haploid gametes. In yeast, meiosis is followed by spore morphogenesis. These two events are normally coordinated in such a way that spore formation is dependent upon completion of the meiotic nuclear divisions. Here we describe a meiosis-specific protein, mfr1, that is involved in this coordination. mfr1 is an activator...
