Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae MATa haploid cells, the a-specific genes are expressed, whereas in the MATalpha haploid and MATa/alpha diploid cell types their transcription is repressed. It is shown in this report that Itc1p, a component of the ATP-dependent Isw2p-Itc1p chromatin remodelling complex, is required for the repression of a-specific genes. It has previously been reported that disruption of the ITC1 gene...
