Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In fission yeast, an RNA species named meiRNA is specifically required for the promotion of the first meiotic division. To dissect the function of this RNA and its partner RNA-binding protein Mei2, we screened for high-copy-number suppressors of the arrest prior to the first meiotic division caused by loss of meiRNA. RESULTS: Analysis of one of the suppressors, named ssm4, suggested that it encodes a...
