Abstract excerpt
Though early stages of yeast conjugation are well-mimicked by treatment with pheromones, the final degradation of the cell wall and membrane fusion of mating that leads to cytoplasmic mixing may require separate signals. Mutations that blocked cell fusion during mating in Saccharomyces cerevisiae were identified in a multipartite screen. The three tightest mutations proved to be partial-function alleles of the...
