Abstract excerpt
During the mating of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, two haploid nuclei fuse to produce a diploid nucleus. This process requires the functions of BiP/Kar2p, a member of the Hsp70 family in the endoplasmic reticulum, and its partner protein, Jem1p. To investigate further the role of BiP and Jem1p in nuclear fusion, we screened for partner proteins for Jem1p by the yeast two-hybrid system and identified Nep98p....
