Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In vegetatively growing diploid strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, homologous chromosomes appear to be paired via multiple interstitial interactions, likely as a regular feature of the diploid lifestyle. We have previously suggested that this pairing is guided by direct ph...
