A wat1 mutant of fission yeast is defective in cell morphology.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 26 Mar 1997

Kemp J T, Balasubramanian M K, Gould K L

Abstract excerpt

The organization of the actin cytoskeleton plays an integral role in cell morphogenesis of all eukaryotes. We have isolated a temperature-sensitive mutant in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, wat1-1, in which acting patches are delocalized, resulting in an elliptically shaped cell phenotype. Molecular cloning and DNA sequencing of wat1+ showed that the gene encodes a 314 residue protein containing WD-40 repeats. Cells...
