Abstract excerpt
We report here the molecular cloning of the A43 mating type factor from Coprinus cinereus, a basidiomycetous fungus. Our molecular analyses revealed an unexpected source of variation in the A factor. Though genetic studies have demonstrated that A has two subunits, alpha and beta, we located three nonoverlapping fragments in the A43 region that have A factor function following DNA-mediated transformation. The...
