Mating-type gene switching in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Dec 1992

Haber J E

Abstract excerpt

The study of yeast mating-type (MAT) gene switching has provided insights into several aspects of the regulation of gene expression. MAT switching is accomplished by a highly programmed site-specific homologous recombination event in which mating-type-specific sequences at MAT are replaced by alternative DNA sequences copied from one of two unexpressed donors. The mating-type system has also provided an...
