A Unique DNA Recombination Mechanism of the Mating/Cell-type Switching of Fission Yeasts: a Review.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Oct 2014

Klar Amar J S, Ishikawa Ken, Moore Sharon

Abstract excerpt

Cells of the highly diverged Schizosaccharomyces (S.) pombe and S. japonicus fission yeasts exist in one of two sex/mating types, called P (for plus) or M (for minus), specified by which allele, M or P, resides at mat1. The fission yeasts have evolved an elegant mechanism for switching P or M information at mat1 by a programmed DNA recombination event with a copy of one of the two silent mating-type genes...
