Abstract excerpt
The M26 mutation in the ade6 gene of Schizosaccharomyces pombe creates a hot spot of meiotic recombination. A single base substitution, the M26 mutation is situated within the open reading frame, near the 5' end. It has previously been shown that the heptanucleotide sequence 5' ATGACGT 3', which includes the M26 mutation, is required for hot spot activity. The 510-bp ade6-delXB deletion encompasses the promoter...
