Abstract excerpt
Ste4- mutants of Schizosaccharomyces pombe are unable to undergo both mating and meiosis. We have cloned the ste4+ gene and its cDNA. The gene encodes a 264 amino acid protein with a typical leucine zipper motif homologous with the jun family. However, unlike the jun family, this protein does not...
