Abstract excerpt
The Schizosaccharomyces pombe pac1 gene is a multicopy suppressor of the pat1 temperature-sensitive mutation, which directs uncontrolled meiosis at the restrictive temperature. Overexpression of the pac1 gene had no apparent effect on vegetative growth but inhibited mating and sporulation in wild type S. pombe cells. In such cells, expression of certain genes required for mating or meiosis was inhibited. The pac1...
