Abstract excerpt
We describe the identification of a new meiosis-specific gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, NDT80. The ndt80 null and point mutants arrest at the pachytene stage of meiosis, with homologs connected by full-length synaptonemal complexes and spindle pole bodies duplicated but unseparated. Meiotic recombination in an ndt80 delta mutant is relatively normal, although commitment to heteroallelic recombination is...
