Abstract excerpt
The deletion of the top3(+) gene leads to defective nuclear division and lethality in Schizosaccharo myces pombe. This lethality is suppressed by concomitant loss of rqh1(+), the RecQ helicase. Despite extensive investigation, topoisomerase III function and its relationship with RecQ helicase remain poorly understood. We generated top3 temperature-sensitive (top3-ts) mutants and found these to be defective in...
