Abstract excerpt

We have cloned and characterized the fission yeast cdc19+ gene. We demonstrate that it encodes a structural homologue of the budding yeast MCM2 protein. In fission yeast, the cdc19+ gene is constitutively expressed, and essential for viability. Deletion delays progression through S phase, and cel...
